Painting of a fountain constructed in 1903 in Asakusa Park, which is located behind the main hall of Senso-ji temple. The main hall of Senso-ji temple can be seen on the left side of the work. Around the fountain are stone structures mounted with pots (likely stone-made) that hold plants. Although this fountain has been lost, the Dragon King statue by Koun Takamura that serves as a fountain head has been moved to the chozuya (water-filled basin for ceremonial purification) located in front of the main hall of Senso-ji temple.
