列車驀進, Ressha bakushin by 淵上白陽, Fuchigami Hakuyo

“A Train Rushing” first appeared as the opening gravure image in the October 1930 issue of
Asahi kamera. From the moment it was published, this image has symbolized the mastery of photographic form exhibited in Japanese modernism of this period. Today, “A Train Rushing” regularly appears in exhibition catalogues and histories of modern Japanese photography as the pinnacle of modernist photographic aesthetics.
