It is “Mt. Fuji” currently drawn most in Japan.
The upper picture is written to be “Fuji during winter”, and is Mt. Fuji which covered with snow in winter.
Snow is added to the magnificence of Mt. Fuji and a mystical aspect is presented.
As a picture, the group of a bird is drawn on the left and it seems to be the one scene of a movie completely.
The ridgeline in Mt. Fuji has massive in itself, and snowy softness, thickness, etc. are felt.
The lower picture is written to be “Fuji of dawn”, and though simple, the exact depiction which looks minute is made.
In order to express the morning sun, the shade of Mt. Fuji is delicately expressed according to surface unevenness.
The lump of clouds is stationed on the left of light and an opposite direction, and the direction of light is further expressed strongly with the line of the gently-sloping slant from the lower right to the left in Mt. Fuji.
It is wonderful composition.
日本で最も多く描かれている「富士山」です。上の絵は「冬の富士」と書かれており、冬に雪化粧をした富士山です。富士山の雄大さに雪が加わり、神秘的な様相を呈します。絵としては、左に鳥の群れを描き、まるで映画のワンシーンのようです。富士山の稜線はそれ自体に量感があり、雪の柔らかさや厚みなどが感じられます。下の絵は「夜明けの富士」と書かれており、簡略ながら細密に見える的確な描写がなされています。朝日を表現するために、富士山の陰影を表面の凹凸に応じて繊細に表現しています。雲のかたまりを光と逆方向の左に配置し、富士山の右下から左にかけてのなだらかな斜めのラインで更に光の方向を強く表現しています。素晴らしい構図です。
