Boat and sailors in matoyo beach

Boat and sailors in matoyo beach

Matoya Bay is located at the central east part of Shima Peninsula. It is carved deeply from east to west and is said to be second only to Toba Harbour. It was used frequently as a waiting port for winds during the era of sailing boats. Along the bay are two story clap board houses. A boat with three sailors is pulled to the shore. In the background, a sailor sits on a pole usually used to dry fishnets.==Date:unknown, Place:Mie, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number19‐47‐0]

          Mt. Fuji seen from Numakawa,Tagonoura

          The boat is probably the cargo vessel of the time, the Bezai boat. The sail has been folded, and the boat is anchored with a straw matting. Tagonoura was a port of the Edo era for Sengokubune (junk boats with capacity for one thousand koku of rice) of the Shogunate that came in and out from Kashima, a territory of the Shogunate. The shadow of the wooden bridge is beautiful. * A photo taken from the same angle is included 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).==Date:unknown, Place:Shizuoka, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number14‐1‐0]
