日本語: 一勇齋國芳画「東海道五十三對」より『掛川』、伊場屋仙三郎版、大判錦絵
“此驛に下逆（しもさか）の鍛治あり 昔福岡宗吉といふ名匠（めいかじ） 帝の勅命を受（うけ） 大井川の水に和（くわ）し剱一口（けんひとふり）打得たり 帝御幸（ミゆき）あつて業を試んと新刃（あらミ）を水にひたして 急流の上より藁一筋を流さしめ 其藁此剱の影を流（ながれ）ず 却（かへつ）て水上（みなかみ）へ逆上るゆへ 帝感じ給ひ 名を下逆と勅号す 其後青江某の家に傳え 青江下逆と呼ぶ 此刀一度紛失し 福岡貢種々辛苦して 勢州二見浦にて手がヽりを得て 竟（つい）に刀を手に入 主家（しゅうか）を興す 忠臣稀なり この因（ちなみ）によってこれを圖す“ 掛川に下逆という鍛冶がいたことから、妖刀青江下逆と関わる歌舞伎演目『伊勢音頭恋寝刃』の主人公、福岡貢が伊勢二見浦で日に照らして密書を読む情景を描いたもの。 Part of the series The 53 stations of the Tokaido in pairs(or "53 Parallels for the Tōkaidō Road"), a series of woodcuts composed by Hiroshige, Kuniyoshi and Kunisada and issued around 1845 by different publishers.. English: At Kakegawa, the twenty-seventh stop along the highway between Edo (old Tokyo) and Kyoto, a swordsmith identified as Shimosaka is shown with a letter. In the 1830s and 1840s, landscape prints depicting the fifty-three resting places were immensely popular. In this series, Kuniyoshi used the theme as a scaffolding for the depiction of figures, each of whom had a connection (sometimes extremely farfetched) with the place of the title. |
