This print shows Ochanomizu in Edo, the castle city that became Tokyo, where the Kanda River runs through a steep, stone-walled cut past the slope. The record's subject tags point to canals, an aqueduct, and boats, along with Mount Fuji visible in the distance, so the scene combines working waterways with the view that gave the series its name. The early Edo-period engineering that carved the channel let barges move goods through the city, and the artist draws attention to that traffic. The catalog lists several artists, and the title credits Hiroshige, so attribution is worth checking against the original record.
