Description
A vermillion-red temple veranda with carved eaves and wooden lattice screens frames a view of snow-capped Mt. Fuji rising above rolling hills in the distance. On the stone steps below, an adult in a brown striped robe stands beside a child in a red kimono, with a small dog at their feet; flowering branches (plum or cherry) dot the hillside in the middle ground. The palette is dominated by vermillion, muted browns, and soft blues/greens, with the temple's wooden stairs and railings leading the eye from the figures toward the distant peak. Mokuhanga woodblock print, "Mt. Fuji from the Kannon Temple in Matsuda," by Jokata Kaiseki.
