"Asakusa Rice Fields During the Festival of the Cock" is a woodblock print by the renowned Japanese ukiyo-e artist Utagawa Hiroshige, also known as Ando Hiroshige. Created in the 19th century, this print is part of Hiroshige's famous series "One Hundred Famous Views of Edo," which depicts various landscapes and scenes from Edo (modern-day Tokyo) with a focus on the changing seasons and the daily activities of its inhabitants.

The print captures the vibrant atmosphere of the Tori no Ichi festival, a traditional event held in November, which is associated with the rooster (cock) in the Japanese zodiac. The festival is known for its lively market where kumade (decorated bamboo rakes) are sold for good fortune and prosperity in the coming year. Hiroshige's depiction of the Asakusa rice fields shows the area bustling with festival-goers and vendors, set against the backdrop of the rice fields that once existed in the Asakusa region.

Hiroshige's masterful use of perspective and composition is evident in this print, where he contrasts the lively human activity in the foreground with the serene expanse of the rice fields extending into the distance. The artist's attention to detail and his ability to capture the essence of Edo's culture and landscape have made "Asakusa Rice Fields During the Festival of the Cock" a celebrated example of ukiyo-e art and an invaluable window into the life of Edo during the Tokugawa period.

This print, like others in the series, is admired for its intricate detail, subtle use of color, and the way it reflects the customs and the spirit of the Edo period. Hiroshige's work has had a lasting impact on the development of Japanese art and has influenced many Western artists, contributing to the Japonisme movement in Europe during the late 19th century. "Asakusa Rice Fields During the Festival of the Cock" remains an important work in Hiroshige's oeuvre and continues to be studied and appreciated for its artistic and historical significance.
