Description

This iconic woodblock print depicts the bustling waterway at Nihonbashi in Edo (present-day Tokyo), Japan's historic commercial heart and the zero-mile marker from which all road distances in the country were traditionally measured. Merchants, cargo boats, and stacked goods line the canal flanked by warehouses, while a castle and the iconic silhouette of Mount Fuji rise serenely on the horizon. The composition captures the vibrant economic life of Edo-period Japan with Hokusai's signature dynamic perspective and luminous sky, part of his celebrated series Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji.
