Mt. Fuji from Satta, Sketched at 9:00 a.m. in Mid-January, 1881
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating woodblock print by the renowned Japanese artist Kobayashi Kiyochika, created during the Meiji Era in the late 19th century. The print showcases the iconic Mt. Fuji, or Fujisan, as seen from the coastal town of Satta in Shizuoka, Japan. The image captures the mountain in its winter splendor, with a thin veil of clouds draped over its snow-capped peak. The print is a testament to Kobayashi Kiyochika's mastery of the woodblock printing technique, a traditional Japanese art form known as ukiyo-e. The artist expertly employed color and contrast to bring the scene to life, with the muted tones of the winter landscape contrasting sharply against the vibrant reds and oranges of the rising sun. The composition of the print is striking, with the towering volcanic mountain dominating the landscape, while the cliffs and shoreline recede into the distance. The tranquil water of the bay reflects the mountain's image, creating a sense of harmony between the natural elements. The print is a snapshot of a specific moment in time, with the title indicating that it was sketched at 9:00 a.m. in mid-January of 1881. This attention to detail and precise representation of the natural world is a hallmark of ukiyo-e art. Today, this precious piece of heritage art is housed in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where it continues to inspire and captivate audiences with its beauty and historical significance. The print is a reminder of the rich artistic traditions of Japan and the enduring allure of Mt. Fuji, a symbol of the country's natural and cultural heritage.
