'At Nagasaki' [Japan]

No. 19 of 51 (PAJ2051 - PAJ2101): inscribed by the artist on the album page 'At Nagasaki', and dated '7/68'. Even today there are a number of traditional stone bridges like this spanning the small watercourses that run through Nagasaki from the surrounding hills, but it is not at present possibly to identify this location further though the topography is distinctive. It is presumably within the outskirts of the town on the east side of the harbour.
