Mt Fuji is coloured bright red to represent the dawn, as it rises from amidst the clouds to tower over the surrounding landscape. This edition was produced by the Watanabe studio in Tokyo, renowned for creating some of the most celebrated woodblock prints of the 20th century. They brought the same skill and attention to detail to recreate timeless Ukiyoe designs, like this masterpiece by Hokusai.
