BUNGEN KAIHO ON'EDO EZU (SCALED POCKET PLAN OF EDO) Suharaya, Mohē, 嘉永五 [Kaei5 –c.1852] Woodblock, hand coloured, two censorships stamps, wear along original folds, slight misalignment of extension, one foxing spot, hinged onto mount, framed86,5 by 57,5cm and extension 43,8 by 14,5cmPROVENANCEPurchased in Tokyo in 1960sA practical, yet decorative map of Edo (now Tokyo) just before the end of Japanese isolation. The map has no directional orientation and texts radiate from the centre. This is because the map is designed to be read on a low table or Tatami, allowing the reader to move around it while maintaining readability. Temples, shrines and Edo castle are illustrated on the map. The red dots with clan symbols (mon) surround the castle and indicate the houses of the elite and the ruling class. The large mon inside the castle precinct confirms that it was still occupied by the Tokugawa Shogunate when the map was produced. - L.R.Rotolo, P., Mapping social hierarchies onto the city of Edo, Osher Map Library: Smith Center for Cartographic Education, 2013 (http://www.oshermaps.org/exhibitions/ map-commentaries/social-hierarchies-edo)
