Sudden Shower over Shin-Ōhashi Bridge and Atake, from One Hundred Famous Views of Edo

From the Cleveland Museum of Art record

Published two years after the great earthquake and fire of 1855, this print design illustrates the newly rebuilt Great Bridge over the Sumida River in Edo (now Tokyo). The design shows Utagawa Hiroshige’s skill in capturing atmospheric conditions. People try to protect themselves from sudden sheets of rain as they cross the bridge in opposite directions. The Atake neighborhood is seen in the distance. The Ohashi Bridge was one of 300 bridges that crossed the Sumida River.

LinkedCulture assembled this text from several fields of Cleveland Museum of Art’s catalogue record, so it is not the museum’s own wording as published. See “How LinkedCulture maps this record” below.

What the image shows

A group of people walking on a wooden bridge under heavy rain.

Generated by LinkedCulture from the photograph alone, without the museum’s catalogue text (Qwen/Qwen2.5-VL-7B-Instruct), and not yet reviewed by a person. It describes the picture, not the object’s history, and it is not part of the museum’s record.
