The Floating World

Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji (Fugaku sanjūrokkei)

Fuji from Gotenyama at Shinagawa on the Tōkaidō

東海道品川御殿山の不二 · Tōkaidō Shinagawa Gotenyama no Fuji

Katsushika Hokusai · c. 1830–32

それは何か

Cherry trees in full blossom crown the hill at Gotenyama, picnickers gather under them, and Fuji appears across the water beyond.

なぜ重要か

One of the ten designs added after the series’ first success, it puts the mountain behind a spring crowd at Shinagawa, on the Tōkaidō out of Edo.

注目すべき点

The blossom is printed as soft clouds of pink, and the mountain sits in the gap between two of them.

Spring is a crowd on a hill, and the mountain waits at the edge of it.

摺りについて。 The series sold well and was printed in large numbers. The first sheets lean on the newly imported Prussian blue, outlines included; later printings add colours and soften the key block. This is the largest clean open impression of the design the Met holds. 摺りによる違いは実在します——拭き取りや退色は一枚ごとに異なり、公開コレクションの中から最良の一枚を選ぶことこそ、当店の学芸的な仕事です。
