"Ueno Yamashita" (original title: 上野山した) is a woodblock print by the Japanese painter and illustrator Utagawa Hiroshige (1797-1858) produced in October 1858.
The main subject of the print is the establishment on the right, a fast-food restaurant called "Iseya," as indicated by the katakana and hiragana inscriptions. Also visible on the sign is the shisomeshi sign, which is a rice dish with shiso leaves. In the lower left corner, elegant ladies with large umbrellas pass by, perhaps heading to the nearby Ueno Shrine. The sky is crossed by a flock of crows, very abundant in this region. This print is by the hand of Hiroshige II, who created it after the master's death, but probably from an already sketched drawing, since the author's name appears in the red cartouche in the upper right corner.
