图录
说明:Around the vortex of a whirlpool in Naruto, Awa Province, waves tower and swell violently against rocky outcrops. Infamous for its tidal whirlpools, the narrow strait of Naruto is located between the island of Shikoku and Awaji connecting the Pacific Ocean with the Japanese Inland Sea. The planar composition has the swirling waters dominating the foreground. Plovers (chidori) above the distant mountain ridges suggest the spray of water released from the thrashing sea, an effect later repeated by Hiroshige in the series Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji (Fugaku sanjurokkei).1
