Fifty-three Stations on the Tokaido: Rokugo Ferry at Kawasaki 東海道五拾三次之内　川崎六郷渡舟とうかいどうごじゅうさんつぎのうち　かわさき　ろくごうわたしぶね

Description

現在の神奈川県川崎市川崎区にあたる。東海道五拾三次の道のりの最初に渡る大きな川が本図で描かれる多摩川である。対岸に見えるのが川崎宿。多摩川は六郷川とも呼ばれ、ここを渡す船は「六郷の渡し」といわれた。もともとは大きな橋が架けられていたが、たびたび洪水で流されたため、舟で渡河するようになったという。画面奥には西日で真っ赤に染まった空と雪化粧した富士の姿のコントラストが美しく、情感をかき立てられる。
