EDITORS COMMENTS
He: Mt. Fuji, Suruga Province" is a stunning color woodblock print from the series "Tales of Ise in Fashionable Brocade" created by the renowned Japanese artist Shunsho, circa 1772/73. This exquisite work of art showcases the iconic Mt. Fuji, also known as Fujiyama or Fousi Yama, dominating the landscape of Suruga Province in Japan. The print is a masterpiece of the Katsukawa School, which was a leading artistic movement during the Edo Period (1603-1868) in Japan. The print is adorned with vibrant colors, with the mountain's majestic peak standing out in green, contrasted by the pink hues of the cherry blossoms and the rosy clouds in the sky. The artist has skillfully incorporated calligraphy into the print, adding an elegant touch to the composition. The figure of a man, dressed in traditional Japanese clothing, including a kimono and a koban hat, is depicted in the foreground, gazing at the mountain in awe. The series "Tales of Ise in Fashionable Brocade" was inspired by the classical Japanese poetry collection "The Tales of Ise," which chronicles the romantic journeys of a man named Genji and his encounters with various women. The fashionable brocade in the title refers to the elaborate and fashionable clothing worn by the figures in the prints, which were popular during the Edo Period. This beautiful work of art is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of Japan and the enduring allure of Mt. Fuji, which continues to inspire artists and visitors alike. The print is a must-see for anyone interested in Japanese art, history, or culture, and is a valuable addition to any collection or gallery.
