專家說明
This set was started by Eisen and published by Hoeido in 1835, however in 1837 Hiroshige took over the project, working with the publisher Iseiri (Kinjudo).
Seba (lit. 'washing the horse') was the place where the general Minamoto no Yoshinaka (1145-84) was supposed to have washed his horse.1
In this famous design two men travel by boat along the Narai river at dusk, towards the town of Seba. For a comparable impression in the collections of the British Museum, museum number 1906,1220,0.933, go to https://www.britishmuseum.org/research
