"Returning Sails at Takanawa" adapts the classical trope of "Returning Sails at a Distant Bay" (enpo kihan) to the well-known view of Edo bay along a stretch of the Tôkaidô Road at Takanawa in the Shiba district of Edo. Smaller boats with white sails ferry goods to shore from the large dark ocean-going vessels anchored in the bay. In the unceasing traffic along the Tôkaidô Road, the major highway leading in and out of the city to the south, we see a mounted samurai and his servant in the lower-left corner passing through the granite sides of the gated portal to the city. Coming towards them is a group of pilgrims dressed in white, followed by two more samurai borne in palanquins, and another two palanquins are parked at the side of the teahouse. Large hand-carts for carrying building materials are seen in the lower right-hand corner, while at the right workers appear to be building a larger restaurant or teahouse. Two sign-boards next to a mile-post at the seating area carry official regulations pertaining to travelers entering Edo—these signs were a common sight at every bridge and approach to the city, along with the heads of executed criminals.

"Night Rain on the Xiao and Xiang" becomes "Night Rain on Akabane." The white cartouche at the approach to the bridge carries the seal and name of Echizen-ya Heisaburô, publisher of the series, with the round official "approved" (<em>aratame</em>) seal of the government censor. In the upper left corner are Hiroshige's signature and seal and the seal of the publisher Izumi-ya Ichibei.
In the lower left corner is Akabane Bridge across the Meguro River (now little more than a small canal under a superhighway). We are looking south across the river at the outer military barracks of the mansion of the Arima of Kurume, low white buildings set with red gates and roofed with blue tiles. Since 1688 the samurai Arima family was charged with fire prevention at the important Zôjôji temple nearby that is now behind the viewer (see "Evening Bell at Mt. San'en," 87.34.5), and on a hill behind the compound looms their fire-watch tower (<em>hinomi yagura</em>)—these tall watch-towers were among the most familiar sights in the combustible city of Edo.

"Evening Glow on a Fishing Village" has become "Evening Glow on Jinmei Shrine." Jinmei, which literally means "God-bright," was a term used to indicate the chief of all Shintô deities, Amaterasu no Ômikami, who is enshrined here. The Jinmei Shrine, also called the Great Shrine of Shiba (<em>Shiba Dai Jingû</em>), was one of Edo's most popular places for outings, and its popularity made it a favorite place as well for particularly brazen prostitutes who were parodied in poetry:
<blockquote><span class="small"><em>Jinmei wo</em> Even worshipping<br>
<em>Ogandeiru ni mo</em> At the Jinmei shrine—<br>
<em>Mosshimoshi</em> "Well hell-lo there"</span></blockquote>

"Geese Descending on Gotenyama" plays on the classical "Geese Descending on a Sand Bar." The view here is from from Mt. Goten (Gotenyama), overlooking Edo Bay from above the spit of land that can be seen in the far distance in the right of the first print in this series. Gotenyama means "The Shogun's Mountain," so named because the first Tokugawa Shogun, Ieyasu (1542-1616), built a mansion (<em>goten</em>) for hunting on this elevation. Cherry-trees from Yoshino near Kyoto were planted here 1661-73, making it a favorite sightseeing spot. More than twenty years later Hiroshige was to recycle this scene in his "Hundred Views of Edo: View North from Mt. Asuka" (<em>Meisho Edo hyakkei: Asukayama kita no chôbô</em>), with one crucial change: rather than Edo Bay here, the later view is of the mountains northeast of the city.

"Autumn Moon at Tamachi" echoes "Autumn Moon over Lake Dongting." This print contains the publisher's seal only of Echizen-ya Heisaburô. The script near the roof-beam of the red shrine names the building as the Hachiman Shrine, also known as Samezu Jinja or "Shark's Head Shrine" for the statue of the sacred Buddhist deity Kannon that a founding legend of Edo claims fishermen found in the belly of a shark pulled from the bay near this spot. The light of the harvest moon in this lovely autumn night view makes the city rooftops appear to glow whitely below the shrine to Hachiman, the god of war and one of the important cult deities of the Tokugawa house.

"Evening Bell at Mt. San'en" shows as its "distant temple" the Sangedatsumon (Gate of Freedom from the Three Misperceptions), the main gate (<em>sanmon</em>) of Zôjôji, the burial temple of the Tokugawa shoguns. This gate, originally built in 1622, is one of the few monuments of Edo still extant today; the rest of this magnificent temple disappeared, along with much of Tokyo, in the Allied bombing raids on the city during WWII. This print shows people walking at dusk in the "Field of One Hundred Pines" that stretched in front of the temple's main gate. The characters "mountain ties" used to write the word <em>san'en</em> in the title of the print are properly written with the homophonic characters "three ties," which in the Jôdo sect of Buddhism refers to the three duties of its main devotional rite, one of which is <em>zôjô-en</em> or the duty of reciting the name of Amida Buddha—the source of the name of Zôjôji temple shown here.

"Night Snow over Mt. Atago" replaces "Night Snow over a River Sky," and the script near the treetops tells us that the scene is of the year-end fair on this Shiba height with its unparalleled view over the bay. In his "Hundred Views of Edo" Hiroshige will turn this view into a dramatic closeup of the owner of a famous teashop atop this hill as he stands impressively against the New Years dawn over the bay. One of the temple buildings is shown here with donated paintings called <em>ema</em> arrayed under its eaves, while the masses of people move among the temporary stalls set up under the snow-covered trees to sell every sort of trinket and food. These same stalls can still be found selling pretty much the same things in the famous "inner shops" (<em>nakamise</em>) of the Asakusa Sensôji temple. A few of Edo's ubiquitous fire watch-towers can be seen sketched in down in the flatlands along the bay where the merchant class lived and worked.

"Clearing Storm at Shirogane" features the local shrine to "Lord Kiyomasa" (Katô Kiyomasa), whose martial valor was and is worshipped here, together with the deity Bishamonten, one of the "Seven Lucky Gods" (<em>shichifukujin</em>). The trees are printed using an innovative application of black ink that conveys the impression of thick foliage and dense shadow.
