Additional Notes:<\/strong> This print depicts a rural scene with people carrying wheat or straw along a river with trees and homes in the background. These pit dwelling homes (tateana-shiki) were very common for the time, as they were easy to build and could be rapidly constructed or deconstructed. These homes were often centered around a hearth and have been used throughout history in Japan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
