English: Tokyo Tsukiji Teppōzu Kei by Utagawa Kuniteru (2nd generation) Picture Meiji 2 (1869). This is a series of 6 nishiki-e paintings that depict the state of the Tsukiji settlement area in detail. You can see that there were hotels, customs offices and houses, Japanese shops for foreigners, and even a Yukaku in the settlement. In the first year of the Meiji era (1868), Tokyo was opened for foreigners. Contrary to initial expectations, the Tsukiji settlement did not develop much, but even after the great fire of 1872, churches, schools, hospitals, etc. were built one after another, and the entrance to Western culture imports into Tokyo. As it is a region at the forefront of civilization, it had a great impact on the citizens. Keio University (慶應義塾大学, Keiō Gijuku Daigaku) was established in 1858 by the founder Fukuzawa Yukichi as a School of Western studies located in one of the mansion houses of the Nakatsu Clan in Tsukiji (Edo Gunshu). Keio changed its name as "Keio Gijuku" in 1868, which came from the era name "Keio" and "Gijuku" as the translation of Private school. The area under the artificial hill on the left side of the center of the screen corresponds to the site of the Nakatsu Domain Nakayashiki. Note: the full artwork is wider (6 panels).
