Katsushika Hokusai (1760~1849)

Japanese Woodblock Print  Name 

 #010 - Echizen Fukui no Hashi  (ゑちぜん ふくゐの橋 福井)

From Series - Rare Views of Famous Japanese Bridges

The bridge in Fukui is Tsukumobashi Bridge, which spans the Asuwa River in Fukui City.

 As you can see from the picture, it is a unique bridge,

consisting of a stone sleeve and a wooden middle section.

On the opposite bank, hosho paper (Japanese paper), a specialty of Echizen,

 is drying, but since it is produced in a different area,

 it seems that Hokusai added it himself.

Hokusai Series of Rare View of Famous Japanese Bridges  were reproduced

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

like a dream team in Japan.
