Typical Price
A lone traveler approaching Mount Fuji on foot connects this print to the centuries-old tradition of pilgrimage art in Japanese printmaking. The human figure provides scale that emphasizes Fuji's overwhelming presence on the horizon. This composition typically sells for $150-$500, and its narrative quality gives it slightly broader appeal than Asano's purely scenic Fuji views.
Description
