"Minowa, Kanasugi, Mikawashima" (蓑輪金杉三河しま ) by Utagawa Hiroshige, 1857.
From the series "One Hundred Famous Views of Edo, no. 102 , part 4: Winter"

Two red-crowned cranes in a marsh, in a scene looking from Minowa and Kanasugi toward Mikawashima (three different villages northwest of the Yoshiwara pleasure quarters).
Every year in winter months, when cranes migrated to Japan, the shogun's Crane Hunt was taking place here, in Mikawashima. Cranes are known as symbols of luck, longevity, and fidelity and this made cranes an auspicious ceremonial gift. Aside from couple of birds taken during each hunt, the birds were carefully protected - you can see a figure in the background, carrying buckets filled with rice with which to feed them.
