Views of Okazaki

Katsushika Hokusai's 'Tokaido Okazaki Yahagi no hashi' (The Yahagi Bridge at Okazaki on the Tokaido Road), from the series 'Shokoku meikyo kiran' (Rare Views of Famous Bridges in All the Provinces) (circa 1830-1844). I think I this is what I saw today in Obuse.


Not to be confused, as I did in the first attempt at this post, with Hiroshige's 'Okazaki. Tenshin-no Hashi' (1834, from '53 Stations of the Tokaido' series).
