On the first day of the snake, pray for good luck with the protection of the snake
NHK's Taiga drama series "Berabo" started this month. "Berabo" is a work depicting the life of Juzaburo Tsutaya, the publishing king of the Edo period, but Shigesaburo set up a Koshodo in Daidenma-cho, Nihonbashi, Chuo-ku, which also served as a publisher and bookstore. That's why I can't miss the drama of Shigesaburo, who is related to Chuo-ku, as a correspondent. Shigesaburo is also known as the person who sent the ukiyo-e artist, Sharaku Toshusai to the world. Sharaku's identity is engulfed in a mystery, but before there was a stone monument written "Sharaku Toshusai End Land" on the precincts of Sumiyoshi-jinja Shirine (pictured above) on Tsukuda Island. (It seems that it was removed because it was dangerous due to the Great East Japan Earthquake, and it is not now.) The drama began, and I suddenly remembered the monument, but I'm really looking forward to seeing how Sharaku will be drawn in the drama in the future.
