The field with weeds in the centre, called Iwasakihara, was the property of Iwasaki Yanosuke Iwasaki, president of Mitsubishi Co.

Mt. Fuji seen from Iwabuchi,Tokaido Road

Northeastern view of Mt. Fuji from the terraced bank of Fuji River near Iwabuchi, Fujigawa-cho. Rice paddies stretch away from the foot of the hill, and the village of Iwabuchi is visible on the left. Fujigawa Bridge is visible beyond the pine trees on the right of Fuji River. Due to the rapid flow of the river, the bridge was washed away many times. The mountain on the left is Mt. Iwamoto, and pine trees line the other side of the river.==Date:unknown, Place:Shizuoka, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number64‐18‐0]

View from a train window

Probably a photo taken by the same photographer of photos numbered 46-144 and 145. In the distance are mountains and what looks like a river in still images, but to the fore, the image flows and gives the feeling of the train speeding through.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number46‐160‐0]
