Lot description

Signed in Japanese script in Indian ink lower right. Koyo Okada's passionate and persistent preoccupation with Mount Fuji began as early as 1916. He photographed Japan's famous mountain across six decades, from changing perspectives and by various weather conditions, producing some 400,000 pictures. Okada organised numerous exhibitions and published several photo books dedicated to the volcano, which is revered as sacred in Japan and is by nature extremely photogenic due to its harmonious form.
