This item was hand selected and purchased at an antique market in Japan.
This is a print of an ukiyo-e designed by Utagawa Hiroshige.
This is one of the “One Hundred Famous Views of Edo,” titled “Nihonbashi Edobashi (Nihonbashi Bridge and Edobashi Bridge)”, depicting a famous spot in Edo (present-day Tokyo) during the Edo period.
This depicts the view from above Nihonbashi. The bold design highlights a large depiction of the railings of Nihonbashi Bridge and a scene of Botefuri (hand-held fishermen) carrying freshly purchased bonito. In the distance you can see the sun beginning to rise.
Please note that this is a used item, so there may be visible wear.
