Pleasure Boat by Mukōjima Island, 1880 - 1920
About the object
Depicted here is an example of the kind of pleasure boats that operated near Mukōjima Island. These boats offered refreshments – such as snacks and beverages, as well as female companionship – for customers sitting inside the covered boat, who would enjoy the view of the flowering cherry trees as the boat sailed around the island.
