"The Kumano Jūnisha Shrine at Tsunohazu, known as "Jūnisō"" (original title: 角筈熊野十二社俗称十二そう) is a print by the Japanese painter and illustrator Utagawa Hiroshige (1797-1858) made in July 1856.
This shrine, founded during the Ōei era (1394-1428) by Suzuki Kuro, originally from Kii Province (present-day Wakayama Prefecture), is dedicated to twelve regional deities, hence its name Jūnisha ("twelve shrines"). Located west of the city, in Tsunohazu, now part of the Shinjuku district, it is the main shrine in the region. The composition of the print is centered around a central pond, surrounded by pine fields and several tea pavilions, where strollers enjoy the scenery. In the lower left corner, several shrine buildings can be seen. In the background, mountains are outlined in a white and yellow mist.
