"View of the Old Boat-Bridge at Sano in Kozuke Province (Kozuke Sano funabashi no kozu)" is a woodblock print by the renowned Japanese artist Katsushika Hokusai. This artwork is part of Hokusai's famous series "Remarkable Views of Bridges in Various Provinces," created around 1834 during the Edo period of Japan. The series showcases Hokusai's fascination with bridges, not merely as architectural feats but also as integral elements of the landscape that embody the interaction between humans and nature.

The print depicts the old boat-bridge at Sano, a notable crossing in Kozuke Province, which is present-day Gunma Prefecture. The bridge, constructed from boats tied together, represents a traditional form of bridge-building in Japan, particularly in regions with wide rivers that were prone to flooding. Hokusai's composition focuses on the harmonious coexistence of human-made structures with the natural environment. The bridge stretches across the image, guiding the viewer's eye across the flowing river to the distant mountains, subtly rendered under a calm sky.

Hokusai's use of perspective and his refined control of line and color highlight the transient beauty of everyday scenes. His ability to capture the essence of the moment and the environment, while still imbuing the scene with a sense of tranquility and depth, is evident in this print. The artwork not only reflects Hokusai's mastery of the ukiyo-e technique but also his deep appreciation of Japan's landscapes and his insight into the socio-cultural aspects of Japanese life during his time.

"View of the Old Boat-Bridge at Sano in Kozuke Province" remains a significant work in Hokusai's oeuvre, offering insights into the historical and cultural context of Japan while showcasing the artist's enduring influence on landscape art.
