Fuji viewing

A wooden teahouse with a heavy thatched roof stands on a raised, rocky platform, its open sides framing a view of Mount Fuji's snow-capped peak rising behind it in pale outline. Inside, four figures in kimono sit or lean along the railings facing outward toward the mountain, while a fifth figure descends the stone steps below; a rooftop lantern marker bearing a red seal hangs at the upper right. The palette is muted—soft grays, beige, and warm cream—with a low hill, bare trees, and a distant plain sketched lightly in the foreground below the teahouse mound. Title: Fuji viewing. Artist: Ogata Gekko. Medium: Mokuhanga (Japanese woodblock).
