1848, Utagawa Hiroshige, Mount Fuji and the Otodome Fall -- British Museum (London)
From the museum label: Wrapped in mist, Mount Fuji rises behind the Otodome (Muffled) Fall. Two thatched roofs peek over a grassy slope. Popular lore connects the fall with the warrior brothers Soga Juro Sukenari and Soga Gorõ Tokimune. They are said to have prayed for the gods to muffle its sound so they could plan to avenge their father's murder.
