Fuji\u003c\/em\u003e, but it is difficult to pinpoint the exact location, as the name of the place in the title, Shimadagahana or Shimada Point, cannot be located. \u003cbr\u003eThe Shimada wharf would be identified by Suzuki in the area of the canals near Fugakawa. Smith also notes how the Fuji drawn in black, emphasizing the onset of darkness, is the same as that depicted in the plate \u003cem\u003eOnmayagashi yori Ryobashi sekiyo o miru\u003c\/em\u003e (\u003cem\u003eView of the Sunset at Ryobashi Bridge\u003c\/em\u003e) from the series \u003cem\u003eThirty-Six Views of Mt. Fuji\u003c\/em\u003e, and how the relaxed atmosphere of the characters depicted in both drawings may suggest a common theme and, therefore, a representation of the famous pier called Hyappongui, “The One Hundred Poles,” near the Ryogoku Bridge.\u003cbr\u003eIn conclusion, it is likely that this scene combines different glimpses along the Sumida River, with the aim of creating a generic water view framing Mt. Fuji.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Galleria Elena Salamon - Arte Moderna e Contemporanea, Stampe Giapponesi","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51993538920795,"sku":null,"price":450.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0405\/8110\/3766\/files\/HokusaiKatsushikaOneHundredViewsofMountFuji50.jpg?v=1767633465","url":"https:\/\/www.elenasalamon.com\/en\/products\/hokusai-katsushika-cento-vedute-del-monte-fuji-n-50-1835","provider":"Galleria Elena Salamon - Arte Moderna e Contemporanea, Stampe Giapponesi","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
