Mt. Fuji Frosty Morning in Nagaoka, Izu by Hasui Kawase, 1939

Introducing "Mt. Fuji Frosty Morning in Nagaoka, Izu" by Hasui Kawase, an exquisite woodblock print masterpiece created in 1939. Hasui Kawase, a celebrated Japanese woodblock printmaker, was a prominent figure in the Shin-Hanga movement. This movement revitalized traditional ukiyo-e art by incorporating Western artistic principles, bridging cultural aesthetics and enhancing the allure of Japanese landscapes.

The notability of Hasui Kawase arises from his skillful portrayal of serene and picturesque landscapes often capturing the tranquil beauty of Japanese rural and urban scenes. His work exemplifies the harmonious blend of mood, atmosphere, and the cultural elements of Japan. The scene of Nagaoka, Izu, under a frosty morning light with Mt. Fuji in the backdrop, exudes a peaceful and contemplative mood, a hallmark of Kawase's craftmanship and the Shin-Hanga movement.

My standard frames come in six colours (black, dark brown, dark grey, antique gold, oak and white), and custom framing is available for an additional charge.
