Note du spécialiste

The oarsmen aboard two fishing boats in Suruga bay strain hard against the rough waters, whilst a fisherman casts a net from the prow. On the shore, figures rake the flats and carry baskets of salt to kilns dotted along the beach. Another impression is in the British Museum, museum number 1906,1220,0.537; and the Metropolitan Museum of Art, accession number JP1288.
