The Brocade Bridge in Suo Province (from the series Curious Views of Famous Bridges in the Provinces)

Katsushika Hokusai

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a Japanese landscape with a bridge over a river. The bridge has three arches with a railing on either side and is made of wood with stone supports. Two people are on the bridge, one on the right side, and four people are on the riverbank on the left side. The bridge spans a river that runs horizontally across the image. In the foreground, there are trees and buildings with dark blue roofs. A mountain rises in the background, and the sky is blue with rain falling. The color palette includes shades of blue, brown, and green. There is a vertical rectangle with Japanese writing on the top right side.
