A packed kabuki theater drawn in deep perspective, stage and audience receding into the distance for the kaomise, the annual show where a troupe introduced its actors for the new season. Okumura Masanobu was an early champion of uki-e, prints borrowing Western one point perspective to make Edo viewers feel like they could walk right in. Hand tinted, crowded, and basically a 1740 opening night photo.
