Description from the seller

*The lighter is for comparison purposes. I don't smoke, and the work doesn't have a cigarette smell.

Gold and silver are used lavishly.
In particular, the skillful use of gold and silver leaf expresses the three-dimensional beauty of Mount Fuji.
The gold-leaf sky is reminiscent of a morning glow.

Kunio Kaneko (1949-)
Under the concept of "Neo Japan Art," he creates works that aim to blend tradition and modernity.
He uses traditional Japanese woodblock printing techniques (mokuhanga) and maintains the time-honored method of printing with a hand-rubbing tool called a "baren."
However, his motifs and color palettes go beyond classic and traditional ones, incorporating contemporary and modern colors, textures, and sensibilities.
The use of gold and silver foil adds contrast and a touch of elegance to the piece.

This piece combines the techniques of traditional Japanese woodblock printing with a modern feel.

As a result, it has many international fans. It's a work that resonates with people from overseas.

This limited edition piece depicts the beautiful Mount Fuji.

Mount Fuji is Japan's highest peak and is known as a sacred mountain, considered a holy place in Japan.

It also makes a great gift for friends who love Japanese art.

Woodblock prints usually last for only 100 to 150 prints.

This is a rare edition of just 223 prints.
