This diptych shows the ghost of Asakura Tōgo 朝倉當吾 returning to haunt the man responsible for his death, the corrupt governor Orikoshi Tairyō 織越大領. A kappa (a traditional folk monster) tumbles comically at Orikoshi’s feet.

This print is the first in the Tsutaya Kichizō edition of the 53 Stations of the Tōkaidō Road and depicts Nihonbashi Bridge in Edo, which the traveler would cross on the way to the first station at Shinagawa.
