About this photo
White water falls in many separate strands from the edge of a wide rocky ledge. The thickest strand is a little right of center, and below the falls a white stream runs down at a slant to the lower left. All around are dark, tree-covered slopes, with bright sky peeking through at the top, and at the right edge a single thick tree trunk stands from top to bottom.
Printed below the photo is "日光山中慈眼の瀧" (a waterfall in the Nikko Mountains), with the English caption "JIKWAN WATERFALL, NIKKO." The photo appeared in Nihon Meisho Shashincho (Photographs of Famous Places in Japan), published in 1898. We could not find any information about this waterfall in official sources or dictionaries, so we have written only about what the photo shows and the album's title.
