Japanese Woodblock Print  Name 

#008 - Settsu Ajigawaguchi Tempozan (摂州阿治川口 天保山 大阪)

From Series - Rare Views of Famous Japanese Bridges

Tempozan is an artificial hill made from soil and sand excavated during the construction

 of the Yodo River.

Because it was built at the mouth of the Aji River (Aji River) close to the sea,

it offered a panoramic view of Osaka Bay and was a popular tourist destination.

This painting was probably created with the intention of creating

a panoramic image rather than a picture of a bridge.

by Tokyo traditional woodcut craft Association

These traditional woodblock prints were reproduced exactly as the first edition

at Edo-Tokyo Museum have by many of top skilled craftsmen
