EDITORS COMMENTS
This colour woodblock print, titled "Fuji" transports us to the majestic landscapes of Japan. Created by the talented artist Hochu Nakamura in the late 18th to early 19th century, this artwork is now housed in the prestigious Bristol Museum and Art Gallery in the United Kingdom. The focal point of this print is undoubtedly Mount Fuji, its iconic silhouette dominating the composition. The steep sides of this sacred mountain rise almost to the top of the sheet, evoking a sense of awe and reverence. To the left, two trees with mushroom-shaped foliage add a touch of whimsy and balance to an otherwise serene scene. Interestingly, this particular print remains unsigned, adding an air of mystery surrounding its creator. It was originally part of a larger picture album published by Izumiya Shojiro and designed by Ogata Korin – both renowned figures in Japanese art history. As we gaze upon this exquisite piece, we are reminded that nature's beauty knows no bounds. The harmonious blend of mountains, trees, hills, and pines creates a picturesque landscape that invites us to immerse ourselves in its tranquility. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder platform and eBristol Museums' dedication to preserving cultural heritage without commercial use restrictions; we can appreciate and admire these timeless works from around the world.
