Description

Ogi Harbor on Sado Island's southern coast is the island's main connection to Honshu, its small harbor and traditional wooden inns giving it a quiet port character. This August 1921 oban from the Souvenirs of Travel, Second Series likely shows the harbor with fishing boats moored alongside stone quays, the headlands and sea beyond. Ogi was the gathering point for Sado's squid fishing fleet, and in summer the harbor activity gave Hasui a working maritime subject.
