Sudden Shower over Shin Ohashi Bridge and Atake, from the Series One Hundred Scenic Spots of Edo 名所江戸百景 大はしあたけの夕立めいしょえどひゃっけい おおはしあたけのゆうだち
Description
隅田川にかかる「大はし」（現在の新大橋）を俯瞰した視点で捉え、急に降り出した夕立に相傘をしながらしのぐ３人組の男たちをはじめ、両岸へ急ぐ町人たちの様子が描かれる。橋の向こう側が「あたけ」（安宅）の地域であるが、激しい雨の中でかろうじてシルエットが確認できるのみである。空の部分には摺師の手による「当てなしぼかし」によって、漆黒の雨雲が見事に表現されている。後に、ゴッホが油彩模写を残したことでも有名。
