Keep them guessing with the sheer sophistication of this Geisha at Mount Fuji Scarf. Spread flat, this tribute to the renowned wood-block artist Hokusai recalls his 36 views of Mount Fuji—all accomplished after the age of 70. Loosely flowing or stylishly gathered or tied, this Geisha at Mount Fuji Scarf is a series of artistic impressions. 100% silk. Imported.
66"l. x 16"w.
Museum Provenance
This Geisha at Mount Fuji Scarf is inspired by a work in the Smithsonian’s Arthur M. Sackler Gallery. A repository for Asian art and artifacts, its ceramic holdings are especially strong.
Every Smithsonian purchase will arrive with a museum provenance card explaining how it is adapted from or inspired by an object or objects in our collection.
This was a terrific gift for a friend who had just attended a show of Japanese prints at the Portland Museum. She commented that it was perfect for dressing up or with jeans and a sweater, very versatile. Loved it!

Comments about Geisha at Mount Fuji Scarf:
Beautiful scarf for usual black work clothes. Unusual geisha print in black and white that crosses the solid black/white borders...have to look closely to see that detail. Pretty dark fuschia/red chrysanthemums. Very attractive around neck/face...wonderful buy at the sale price!

Comments about Geisha at Mount Fuji Scarf:
Beautiful lightweight wearable art that works with everything - jeans, suits, and evening attire.. The Asian motif and classic red, black, white colors are perfect for a quick dash to the corner store or for traveling the world. So much more than a simple scarf - besides serving as a pop of color with business suits, I've worn it as a belt with jeans, used it as hair decor, and even an enhancement to a silk opera bag. An indispensable addition to any wardrobe!.

Comments about Geisha at Mount Fuji Scarf:
This scarf is a reminder of both my father's visit in 1951 and my visit in 1998. Given to my daughter as a place to visit someday. In the meantime, it will grace her neck as she goes about her director duties in a hospital.
