Typical Price
The addition of a horse rider in the foreground gives this Mount Fuji composition a narrative element absent from Asano's simpler Fuji views. The traveler approaching the mountain evokes the long tradition of Fuji pilgrimage prints dating back to the Edo period. Expect prices between $150-$500, with strong impressions showing clear detail in both the figure and the distant mountain.
