About this work
Large-billed crow at Tennōji Park, Osaka, Japan. This site is historically significant in Japanese history, and the plaque on which the crow is perched describes the following points. Chausuyama, Kawazoko Pond, and Wake Bridge Chausuyama served as Tokugawa Ieyasu’s main camp during the Winter Campaign of the Siege of Osaka, and later became a fiercely contested battlefield where Sanada Yukimura was deployed during the Summer Campaign. The area also includes Kawazoko Pond, where Wake no Kiyomaro attempted in the Nara period to divert river water southward, and forms part of what is now Tennōji Park.
