Sakai Dôitsu: Mount Fuji and Pines. Japan, late 19th CE. A hanging scroll painting, 34.5 x 68.5 cm. The peak is covered in snow, but the slopes beneath are given a rather colourful treatment using tarashi-komi - a technique unique to the Rimpa school where ink is dripped onto areas of still-wet paint to create a puddled effect. 'Dry brushwork' creates the illusion that the mountain is disappearing into the mists below, and the pines have stylized, mushroom-shaped foliage. These trees represent the pine groves of Miho-no-Matsubara, a celebrated spot from which to view Mt. Fuji. Inv. AC 1979,1008,0.35.
