Mt. Fuji and Cherry Blossom 富士と桜

KOISHI Kiyoshi 小石清

Photographs of Mount Fuji, from the Meiji period to today, capture its fundamentally unchanging form in scenes changing with the seasons. In the work of OKADA Koyo, who pursued the many aspects of Fuji throughout his life, KOISHI Kiyoshi, who viewed contrasts between the mountain in black and the transparently glimmering cherry blossoms, using ultraviolet photography, and KUROKAWA Suizan, whose photography calls to mind sansui-ga, Chinese-style landscape painting, we see the mythological dynamism and tranquil drama of representations of Fuji.
