From the "Fuji in the Four Seasons" series, published by Fusuigabo, depicting the majestic Fuji. The depiction of the mountain surface is remarkable. When Watanabe Shozaburo established his publishing company, firstly he asked Takahashi Shotei to create a design for Shinhanga, the new wave of Ukiyo-e. These prints became massively popular overseas, and the benefit became a foundation of creating the later well-known Shinhanga prints. They had created more than 500 Shinhanga works until the great "Kanto" earthquake disaster in 1923. The terrible fires burned out all printing blocks, however, they recreated them with their passions, elaborately.
