Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji: Mt. Fuji from Kanaya on the Tokaido 冨嶽三十六景　東海道金谷ノ不二ふがくさんじゅうろっけい　とうかいどうかなやのふじ

Description

「箱根八里は馬でも越すが越すに越されぬ大井川」と詠われた東海道最大の難所である大井川。金谷は現在の静岡県島田市に位置する。江戸時代、架橋、渡船が禁じられていた大井川では川越しの人足や馬の背に荷駄や人を乗せる徒渡しが行われていた。まるで、海のように波打つ川を、金谷宿と島田宿の双方から徒渡しで往きかう旅人や荷駄が描かれている。向こう岸には堤防が波のうねりと呼応するような形で描かれている。
