Description
This 1928 standalone Funatsu composition — separate from the Ten Views of Fuji series version — shows the lakeside village on the north shore of Lake Kawaguchi again from a slightly different vantage or in different seasonal light. The partial title ("Funatsu, from") suggests the print was part of a series or collection not fully recorded in surviving documentation. Funatsu's position directly opposite Fuji across the lake made it a favored composition point for artists seeking the mountain's perfect reflection.
