Mukai Junkichi: Minka in the Mountains
Overview
In his paintings of thatched-roof minka houses, MUKAI Junkichi lyrically depicted nature and its changes through the seasons. Mountains figure prominently in his landscapes, reflecting his desire to portray minka in natural settings as they have appeared since time immemorial. Here we introduce works featuring mountains—among them such famed peaks as Shirouma and Fuji—that testify to Mukai’s love for the landscapes where he found his minka.
