Mt. Fuji seen from Numakawa,Tagonoura

Mt. Fuji seen from Numakawa,Tagonoura

The boat is probably the cargo boat of the time, the Bezai boat. The sail has been folded, and the boat is anchored and covered with a straw mat. Tagonoura was a port of the Edo era where sengokubune (junks with a capacity for a thousand koku of rice) came in and out from Kashima, a territory of the Shogunate. The shadow of the wooden bridge is beautiful. * A photo from the same angle is in the book edited by Ozawa Kenji The End of the Bakufu and Meiji in Pictures , entitled Mt.Fuji from Tagonoura 1880s Kinpei Album, p.67. The only difference with (7) is the angle.==Date:unknown, Place:Shizuoka, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number15‐45‐0]

    A cargo boat on the Nihonbashi River

    View of Nihonbashi River looking west, taken from Nihonbashi Bridge. The river is busy with cargo boats. Mt. Fuji was visible from this spot on clear days. The left side of the river is Nishi-gashi (west riverside), and the bridge visible in the far right is Nishi (West) Bridge. This was a transitional period when land transportation was replacing water transportation, but at this time the canal still played a major role in transporting goods. This stereograph was published in 1904 in a book-shaped case.==Date:1904, Place:Tokyo, Photo:Underwood, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number97‐78‐0]
