Atami 8F (45.5×37.9cm) Written by Fumio Asahina

This work depicts Atami's beautiful scenery with bold and expressive brushstrokes.

In the background of a series of mountains, the sky at dusk spreads out, and the light of the setting sun creates various shades of green on the mountain surface.

At the bottom of the screen, the roofs and walls of buildings are painted in various colors.

The sea is calm and its calm surface creates a calm atmosphere.

The artist's powerful brushstrokes give a sense of richness and movement in color, and through this work, he fully expresses Atami's nature and local atmosphere.

Viewers will be able to appreciate the beauty of Japan's seaside towns.
