Title: Yama Temple, Sendai (1933)

Artist: Hasui Kawase

https://www.japan.travel/en/ca/news/experience-the-breathtaking-allure-of-autumn-in-sendai-the-city-of-trees/ #ShinHanga #Art #Showa #Autumn #HasuiKawase #Sendai #Japan

Autumn rain falls on a quiet mountain temple. On our left stands a temple building, the open front door revealing shadows within; just past and on the right is a bell tower, shuttered against the elements. A tree, its branches carrying a thinning batch of orange leaves, reaches out over the puddles forming in the uneven courtyard; just beyond the temple are the shadows of more trees. Above, the sky is slate-gray and overcast, and rain continues falling steadily across the scene. The space seems deserted and still, with no humans visible.

Title: Kawanishi Village, Tochigi Prefecture (1947)

Artist: Hasui Kawase

https://www.visit-tochigi.com/seasons-in-tochigi/autumn/ #ShinHanga #Art #Showa #HasuiKawase #Autumn #Tochigi #Japan

A bright autumn afternoon in Tochigi Prefecture. In the foreground, a watermill stands at the edge of a stone-reinforced embankment bordering a stream. At the end of a narrow stone walkway extending into the water, a female figure crouches low, washing something in a bucket. Just beyond, leaves of tall trees are turning yellow and orange with the season; further on, a group of houses block the horizon. Above, a few white clouds cross a blue sky.

Title: Fujiyama (1988)

Artist: Clifton Karhu

In the foreground, the modern buildings of Fuji City seem tiny and insignificant, dwarfed by the blocky shape of a towering Mount Fuji rising just beyond. The landscape is gray and still, while the sky at the horizon is an ominous deep red bleeding away into darkness above.

Title: Mount Fuji From Ohito, Autumn (1962)

Artist: Toshi Yoshida

https://www.explore-izu.com/destinations/izunokuni/ #ToshiYoshida #ShinHanga #Art #Showa #Autumn #MtFuji #MountFuji #Ohito #Izunokuni #Shizuoka #Japan

An autumn afternoon in rural Japan. In the foreground, the crops have been harvested and the fields are flat and gold-coloured, with a few farmhouses scattered over the plain. Just beyond, a river draws a thin blue line between the farms and foothills covered in trees turning gold, orange and brown with the season. Further on, Mount Fuji rises above the foothills, details of the mountain's base lost in bluish haze, its snowy peak standing out cold and white against the warm gold and orange hues of the sky.

The idea of a husband working while supported by a full-time housewife, or the "Showa Model," continues on in Japanese society, with a survey showing women still do the lion's share of household chores. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/10/06/japan/japan-old-gender-roles/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #japan #women039sissues #showa #wwii #reiwa #genderequality

The Japan Times

Lingering ‘Showa Model’ gender roles keep women sidelined

The idea of husbands working while women stay home goes back to the prewar Civil Code, which stated that women were subordinates who required their husband’s permission to work.

Title: Moonlight at Matsushima, Futago Island (1933)

Artist: Hasui Kawase

https://www.space.com/stargazing/july-full-moon-2025-rises-this-week-heres-what-to-expect-from-the-buck-moon#ShinHanga#Art#Showa#HasuiKawase#Moon#FullMoon#BuckMoon#Matsushima#Miyagi#Japan

A bright full moon shines though a break in the clouds, casting silvery moonlight over the calm water and little islands scattered across Matsushima Bay. On our right, two shadowy figures pilot a small wooden boat away from one of the islands. Beyond the calm bay, low mountains cross the horizon, hazy and indisctinct in the evening light.
