Önuma Park, Hokkaidö

This Onuma Park composition—rendered with diacritical romanization as Önuma Park, Hokkaidö—depicts the lake district in southern Hokkaido near the volcanic cone of Mount Komagatake. The alternate romanization may indicate a different edition or catalog notation. Hasui made several designs of this location, drawn to the scenic contrast between the active volcano's silhouette and the calm, islet-dotted lake surface. The Hokkaido landscape offered distinctly northern subject matter: cooler light, birch and spruce vegetation, and a sense of expansive wilderness absent from his Honshū compositions. The print employs Watanabe's multi-block printing method with careful registration to render tree silhouettes, reflected sky tones, and the gradual tonal shift from water surface to open horizon.
