CATALOGUE 116. Bridge and Boats, by Unknown (Kikuchi 1968).
Two pleasure boats maneuver near a bridge in this picture. The construction on the stern of the larger vessel, usually used as a mast rest for unstepped masts, is unusually tall. It is unclear as to its use on this vessel as yane-bune generally did not have masts. A brazier is being used within the house, perhaps to prepare food.
