Mt. Fuji through Pines, late 1700s-early 1800s. Creator: Kubo Shunman (1757-1820)
Mt. Fuji through Pines, late 1700s-early 1800s. Kubo Shunman dashed off this loose image of Mt. Fuji viewed in the distance from behind pine trees as a performance painting, or sekiga. He did it on the spot in the company of members of his poetry club. Six of them, including the clubs founder Yadoya no Meshimori (Rokujuen, 1753-1830), added kyoka poems, 31-syllable poems like the classical Japanese waka poem in form, but with a heavy emphasis on humor. Shunman jotted down a poem as well, in the bottom right corner of the painting, before signing and sealing it. Each poem takes the painted image as its point of departure
