The Floating World

Remarkable Views of Bridges in Various Provinces (Shokoku meikyō kiran)

Yahagi Bridge at Okazaki on the Tōkaidō

Tōkaidō Okazaki Yahagi no hashi

Katsushika Hokusai · c. 1834

それは何か

A long procession crosses the Yahagi Bridge at Okazaki on the Tōkaidō, with banners and spears raised.

なぜ重要か

Hokusai fills the bridge end to end with marching figures, the road at its most crowded.

注目すべき点

The procession is a long row of small figures, and the spears and banners make a fringe along the bridge’s top.

Power on the road looks like a long, orderly line.

摺りについて。 A horizontal ōban, about 26 by 38 cm on the Met record. The bridges are drawn in fine, exact lines against broad fields of colour, and a clean impression keeps every plank and rail distinct. This is the largest clean open impression of the design the Met holds. 摺りによる違いは実在します——拭き取りや退色は一枚ごとに異なり、公開コレクションの中から最良の一枚を選ぶことこそ、当店の学芸的な仕事です。
