A snow-capped Mt. Fuji viewed through clouds from Nihonbashi (Japan Bridge) from the series "Famous Views of Edo" by Ando Hiroshige (1797-1858) published by Sanoki circa 1840. The print depicts a lively scene with workers carrying merchandise by foot across the bridge in Edo (now Tokyo). Boats are docked before warehouses in the background. The colors are exceptionally fresh and vibrant. This is not a later edition or reproduction. It is a guaranteed original woodblock print by Hiroshige. Standard horizontal oban print measuring about 10"V x 14 3/8"H (image: 8 1/2"V x 13 1/2"H). Signed and sealed at the upper left corner of the image. The censor and publisher's seals are located at the lower right margin and the title cartouche is in the upper right margin. Good impression quality and very good overall condition. The baren marks are clearly visible on the reverse side. There is a small left margin but very large margins on the top, bottom and right sides. There are two small holes in the bottom right margin (see enlargement) and three tiny wormholes which are only visible when the print is held up to light. Light soiling and minor waviness to paper. Faint wheat paste traces verso, but the print is not backed or laid down.
