DESCRIPTION

A group of anglers stand in a fast-moving, undulating river at the foot of a rugged cliff. They use "drifting mosquito hooks" to fish for a summer delicacy that was a favorite of the Edo townspeople. "Fly-fishing" from the series "One Thousand Pictures of the Ocean" (c.1833) by Katsushika Hokusai
