Description
This is from Hokusai’s famous 'One Hundred Views of Mt. Fuji.'
The brown-colored crops appear to be ripened rice waiting to be harvested. Under the clear autumn sky, these rice fields would have shone in gold color, reflecting the sunlight.
In this scene, Hokusai depicted various people; in the center, there is a local woman with her child, a man holding horse reins, and others who appear to be travelers and peddlers. The man seen second from the left, playing the flute, is known as a ’Chinese candy vendor’; those men used to wear foreigner-like outfits, speak in a non-native way, and play an instrument to attract people's attention.
On the right there is a small cultivated hill; three farmers are seen carrying goods, and there is a shrine at the top.
In the distance, Mt. Fuji peacefully overlooks the good harvest.
