Experience Edo-period Japan (1615–1868) through archival maps, prints, and paintings of the capital and surrounding provinces.

Included on view are selections from Utagawa Hiroshige's One Hundred Famous Views of Edo series, maps of provincial castles, and images of famously beautiful places and venerable historical sites. Approximately 20 works on display.
