Description

Kiso River at Inuyama (alternate version, circa 1927), depicts a second view of the Kiso River gorge below Inuyama Castle — another exploration of the same subject as the circa 1927 Kisogawa composition, likely from a different vantage point along the gorge walls or emphasizing different aspects of the river's movement through the limestone canyon. The two Kiso River at Inuyama compositions in this dataset suggest Hasui's sustained engagement with the gorge from multiple compositional approaches during the same period of travel through the Chubu region.
