This print is from a series of 46 prints titled Thirty-Six Views of Mt. Fuji, begun in 1823 and completed around 1831. Several of the illustrations are studies of the mountain under various atmospheric conditions, as seen here (The South Wind Brings Fine Weather.) The majority depict Fuji as a background against which common people are shown engaged in everyday activities.
