The following year, in [[1863]], Iemochi visited [[Kyoto]] at the request (or demand) of the Imperial Court, the first visit by a shogun to the Imperial city since that of [[Tokugawa Iemitsu]] over two hundred years earlier. He traveled not along the [[Tokaido|Tôkaidô]], but by ship as far as [[Osaka]],<ref>Robert Hellyer, ''Defining Engagement'', Harvard University Press (2009), 222.</ref>, and was accompanied by the [[Roshigumi|Rôshigumi]] (the future [[Shinsengumi]]), which had been conscripted to accompany him as part of his entourage. This journey, along with the shogun's visits to the [[Koganehara]] hunting grounds, were depicted in popular [[printing and publishing|woodblock prints]] through a conceit, replacing Iemochi with [[Minamoto no Yoritomo]].<ref>[[Kurushima Hiroshi]], presentation at "[http://www.hawaii.edu/asiaref/japan/event2013/Index.htm#symposium Interpreting Parades and Processions of Edo Japan]" symposium, University of Hawaii at Manoa, 11 Feb 2013.</ref>
