Color-printed view of Osaka Castle from the west, showing the main keep (tenshu) rising above the massive dressed-stone ishigaki (stone walls) with the moat in the foreground. The multi-tiered white plastered keep with its green-tiled roofs and gilded ornaments gleams against a blue sky with scattered clouds. The smaller Katabishi corner turret is visible at right on the stone platform. The moat reflects the walls and vegetation below.
