Custom Printed Aqua Shoes 1902: Ukiyo-e Utagawa Hiroshige's Sudden Shower over Shin Ohashi Bridge and Atake Beach Wading Shoes

In one of Hiroshige’s most iconic prints, figures crossing the Ohashi Bridge are taken by surprise by a sudden downpour of rain. Hiroshige visited the subject of figures caught in a sudden rain shower throughout his landscape work, employing the consummate skill and line-work of the woodblock carver to cast an intricate network of fine incisions over the entirety of the composition. With dense black clouds formed in the evening sky, pedestrians on the bridge hurry off, huddled under their umbrellas or straw capes. In the river is a solitary oarsman cloaked in straw. The riverbank to the distance is obscured by the rainfall, with a row of storehouses to the left for the Shogun’s boats in the Atake neighborhood and the Honjo district barely visible amidst the torrent.
Ohashi referred to two bridges in the capital city of Edo: Ryogoku Bridge and Shin Ohashi Bridge, the latter the subject of this print. Constructed in 1694 over the Sumida River, the bridge connected Hamacho and the Momi Storage in Edo’s Fukagawa district.
