Narazaki Eisho's 1932 woodblock looks down the dark wooden hall of the Kannon temple in Asakusa, where enormous paper lanterns hang above a crowd of kimono-clad worshippers. White doves wheel through the gloom toward the light. An atmospheric shin-hanga print for lovers of Japanese architecture and temple art.
