A wide, pale beach curves along the shore below a wooded headland, with low waves breaking at the left, and beyond the dark green trees Mount Fuji rises white above the sea mist. A few roofs sit among the trees on the hill at the right. The print belongs to Hokusai's Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji, published around 1830–1832 by Nishimuraya Yohachi (Eijudō). Shichirigahama, the seven-ri beach, runs along the coast of Sagami province near Kamakura. The open sand and sky give this one of the calmest designs in the series; impressions vary in colour and condition.
This print reproduces the whole work, uncropped, from a high-resolution scan of the original. The original is in the public domain.
Where it works
Pale sand, soft sky and deep green trees with a white Fuji, for a bathroom, bedroom or coastal home at 24×16 in natural wood. It pairs with Enoshima in Sagami Province, its neighbour on the same coast.

Size. We'd hang this one at 24×16. Prints at 18×12, 24×16 in — 18×12 for a shelf, desk or a gallery-wall grid; 24×16 above a console or sideboard.
Framing. The gallery ground is part of the print, so frame it without a mat — natural wood flatters the lighter palette; black sharpens it.
Pairing. Pairs as a set of three with other famous painting prints (10% off three or more).
