Fuji vanaf het dorp Narusawa 1936

This woodblock print, "Fuji vanaf het dorp Narusawa" (Mount Fuji from the Village of Narusawa), was created by renowned Japanese artist Kawase Hasui in 1936. The print depicts the iconic Mount Fuji, partially obscured by clouds, rising majestically in the background, while a traditional Japanese farmhouse sits in the foreground. Hasui's use of delicate lines and subtle washes of color creates a serene and contemplative atmosphere, capturing the beauty of the Japanese landscape. This work is a fine example of shin-hanga, a style of woodblock printmaking that emerged in early 20th-century Japan.
