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.
