About the Item

Antique Japanese Still Life with Mount Fuji and Floral Vase, 19th Century This elegant 19th-century engraving showcases a harmonious Japanese still life composition that captures the refined aesthetic of Meiji-era decorative arts. At the heart of the image is a beautiful wall hanging featuring a serene landscape of Mount Fuji framed by a delicately patterned border adorned with cranes and floral motifs. The mountain, shrouded in mist and standing above a tranquil river, symbolizes both Japan’s natural grandeur and its cultural reverence for this iconic peak. Below the hanging scroll, a richly detailed vase filled with white peonies and greenery rests on a minimalist wooden stand. The vase itself is exquisitely decorated with traditional Japanese patterns, offering a refined sense of beauty and craftsmanship. To the left, an open book of landscape illustrations lies upon the floor, alongside a simple arrangement of peacock feathers and delicate leaves, blending natural elegance with artistic refinement. This print was created by G. A. Audsley and published by Sampson Low & Co., a firm renowned for its role in introducing Japanese art to European audiences in the late 19th century. The engraving’s fine linework, rich textures, and balanced composition draw the eye into a scene of contemplative tranquility, perfectly illustrating the synthesis of art, nature, and culture that defines Japanese aesthetics. Collectors of antique prints, Japanese art, or interior design will appreciate this rare engraving’s subtlety and the way it evokes a timeless appreciation for harmony and beauty. Condition Report: In good condition with only minor foxing and slight age toning around the margins. The image is crisp and the paper remains stable, free from tears or significant damage. Framing Tips: A slim black or dark wooden frame with a white or cream mat will highlight the refined detail of the composition. This classic presentation will complement the quiet elegance of the still life and ensure the piece becomes a striking focal point in any space.
