A view of Saruhashi Bridge (or "Monkey Bridge") in Kai Province (modern-day Yamanashi Prefecture), from Hiroshige's "Famous Views of the Sixty-odd Provinces" series (Rokujūyoshū meisho zue, 六十余州名所図会). The vivid autumn leaves on the trees clinging to the cliff is juxtaposed by the deep blue of the whirling river below.

The original print was produced in 1853. There are pinholes at the left margin. ![]() ![]() Browse thumbnail pages of various selections from the catalogue ...
