Mekawa Village near Ishibe - Terrific Hiroshige view of the station at Ishibe, one of the most isolated stops on the Tokaido. Men relax inside a tea house and restaurant beneath tall trees. Porters and travelers gather in the street, a man in the center waving a fan as he performs a dance. In the distance, a mountain rises above the mists. A handsome subject with soft color and fine bokashi shading.
