MASAYUKI MIYATA (1926–1997)

2004

62.5 x 50 cm

The woodblock print Red Fuji (赤富士 131/200) by Masayuki Miyata, reprinted in 2004, offers a striking portrayal of Japan's iconic Mount Fuji, rendered in bold red and white hues.

Set against a dramatic dark blue sky, the mountain's vibrant colors command attention with their intensity. In the foreground, lush green pine trees frame the composition, providing a natural contrast to the fiery tones of Mount Fuji. 

This piece exemplifies Miyata's extravagant and powerful aesthetics, demonstrating his skill in blending traditional themes with contemporary flair.
