Lotuses on Shinobazu Pond and a teahouse

Lotuses on Shinobazu Pond and a teahouse

This photograph taken half way along the approach to Nakanoshima, the same location as in #4665. However, the length of the pine branches indicates that this photograph was taken later. The teahouse was built on a protruding point of Nakanoshima. Unfortunately, it was destroyed in a 1945 air raid on Tokyo, and this is now part of the pond.==Date:unknown, Place:Tokyo, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number87‐5‐0]
