Catalog note / 解説
This richly coloured 'uchiwa-e' (rigid fan print) design by Hiroshige shows Choshi Bay. It is situated on the southern side of the promontory that juts into the Pacific Ocean in the north-eastern corner of Chiba Prefecture. Choshi Bay is still known for its scarred and craggy coastline, best enjoyed by boat. Its other attractive feature is its fine but distant view towards Mount Fuji in the south-west. Materials: Woodblock print on paper
