描述：
The rugged Japanese landscape does not favor agriculture; instead there is a great dependence on fishing in the warm and cold currents that surround Japan. The Japanese rely on seafood for most of their protein; it is often consumed raw (as sushi and sashimi), but fish is also steamed, dried or made into cakes. Most cities and towns in Japan have lively fish markets. The calendar pictures show how fish are caught and then unloaded and sold at markets. One print also depicts marsh crabs (sawagani), a tiny Japanese freshwater crab that is sometimes eaten as sushi or lightly fried.
