今月のおすすめ。
二代広重 『東都三十六景 佃しま漁舟』 文久2年（1862）
状態の良い初摺りもしくはそれに近い浮世絵は、木目がきれいに見えるのが特徴の一つです。たくさん摺ることで版木が摩耗していくためです。木版は生き物のよう。

This month’s recommendation.
Hiroshige Ⅱ ‘Fishing Boats at Tsukudajima (Tsukudajima gyoshû), from the series Thirty-six Views of the Eastern Capital (Tôto sanjûrokkei)’ (1862).
One of the characteristics of ukiyo-e prints that are first or near first prints is that the grain of the wood is clearly visible. This is because the woodblocks are worn down by many printings. Woodblocks are like living creatures.
