79 - Hokkei: The Sumida River in Musashi Province


Ukiyo-e. Hokkei.
Hokkei: The Sumida River in Musashi Province

Totoya Hokkei (1780-1850) created this print, The Sumida River in Musashi Province. A fine design by a grossly underrated artist.

Sumida River flows through Tokyo. The river and its many bridges are popular motives in ukiyo-e.
