The sixth print in this Beatles-inspired series, produced in 2025, places Mount Fuji within a visual framework suggested by the song's saturated, fantastical color palette. Kinoshita's hybrid woodblock-and-etching technique enables dense layering of pigment across [washi](/glossary/washi), with intaglio passages contributing linear precision to Fuji's contours or surrounding topographic detail. The Yellow Submarine series, like its counterparts in Kinoshita's Beatles cycle, likely employs an unconventional color register — departing from the muted indigo and ochre conventions of Meiji-era landscape prints in favor of more saturated or unexpected hues. The numbered edition structure indicates this is one of several compositional or chromatic studies within the same titled series.
