In the late Edo period, the government took on the topographical survey for the area around Edo under their direct rule. Shinpen Musashi fudoki (a record of Musashi province, executed in 1828), which I am taking up in this article, is the first fruits of the project and confines many illustrations of topographical points. The purpose of this article rises in constructing the base for examining how such representations created by the project relate the state power through the analysis of the illustrations for Shinpen Musashi fudoki. As a result, the author found that its style was under the strong influence of meisho-zue, a series of illustrated guidebooks having prevailed at that time. The influence is significant in the composition and the depiction of such details as trees or mountains. On the other hand, Shinpen Musashi fudoki is almost irrelevant to various aspects of meisho-zue other than the style for the depiction of scenery. For example, such illustrations as cityscape which are frequently inserted in meisho-zue are scarcely seen in Shinpen musashi fudoki. It derives from the fact that the purpose of its edition is totally different from meisho-zue's one. It was to reconstruct the history of the area following the viewpoint of the ruler at the time, Tokugawa.
