Description: This set of designs was originally published in about 1834, and all of its prints are signed Saki no Hokusai Iitsu Hitsu ("by the brush of Iitsu, formerly named Hokusai"). There are eleven known prints in the series, each depicting, as the title indicates, a famous bridge.

This particular set is one created in the 1980s by Adachi Hanga.

Mokuhankan has this entire set also in our own Collection, where high-resolution photos of the entire set can be studied.
