Description
"Autumn Scene" (Aki fukei) presents the broader seasonal atmosphere of autumn in Japan — the slow transformation of the landscape as leaves color and temperatures drop — through Bakufu's careful, observational approach to the natural world. Where his fish prints demanded scientific precision, his landscape works employ a similar attentiveness to the visual facts of season and atmosphere, rendering the particular quality of autumn light and color in Japan with a painter's eye informed by long study of natural form.
