Hara: Fuji Pond, from the series “Fifty-three Stations of the Tōkaidō Highway” |
解説 |
Utagawa HiroshigeⅡ 1865 Hara post station is the closest station along the Tōkaidō to Mt. Fuji. This is reflected in the print’s composition with Mt. Fuji expansively taking up the background with magnificence. A wetland of this region called Fujino-numa spreads between the Tōkaidō highway and Mt. Fuji. Fujino-numa is also called Ukishima-numa (directly translated to “floating island swamp”) or Ukishimaga-hara (“floating island glade”). The composition imitates that of the print, “Fifty-three Stations of the Tōkaidō: Hara” by Hiroshige I. |
