Description
A snow-capped Mount Fuji dominates the upper two-thirds of the composition, its slopes rendered in pale blue-grey shadow against a soft gradient sky of pale blue fading to warm peach near the horizon. In the foreground, dark blue-black hills or fields stretch in undulating bands across the lower third, rendered with fine linear texture and dotted with small pale marks suggesting scattered patches of snow or terrain detail. No figures appear in the scene; Japanese text and a red seal are printed vertically along the left margin. "Yoshida Village," Hiroshi Yoshida, 1926, woodblock print.
