EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "An Attempted Ascent of Fusi-Yama, run in by Japanese Police" takes us back to the 19th century and immerses us in a suspenseful night scene. The print depicts an incomplete mission as a group of mountaineers face numerous obstacles on their way up the holy mountain. In this dramatic artwork by Durand Godefroy, we witness the order and tight control imposed by the Japanese police uniforms and boots. The local mayor's jubilation is evident as he witnesses his brand-new revenge against these daring adventurers who dared challenge the limits set by treaty. The effects of delay are palpable as members of the expedition drive towards their destination under a midnight sky. Their passports tightly held, they start their journey with hot tea to keep them going through rough roads. As dawn breaks and they arrive at their desired location, frustration fills the air. The ceremonial view that awaited them remains out of reach due to unforeseen circumstances orchestrated by those seeking to baffle their route. This artwork beautifully captures both the determination and disappointment experienced during this attempted ascent. It serves as a reminder that even in our most ambitious endeavors, external forces can often stand in our way. Nevertheless, it leaves us satisfied with its rich depiction of an extraordinary moment frozen in time – an encounter between European artistry and Asian culture amidst Japan's majestic landscapes.
