Description
Fuji 94, edition 117 of 223 from 2003, is notable for its edition size of 223 — slightly irregular by commercial print standards, suggesting either the total number of successful pulls from a print run or a batch size tied to a specific exhibition or commission. The ninety-fourth Fuji print in Kaneko's series represents a mature statement of his graphic language applied to the mountain: bold, confident, accessible, and yet still capable of chromatic surprise within the established compositional framework.
