富嶽三十六景
During the decade leading up to the reforms, Kuniyoshi also produced landscape prints ("fūkeiga"), which were outside the bounds of censorship and catered to the rising popularity of personal travel in late Edo Japan. Notable among these were "Famous products of the provinces" ("Sankai meisan zukushi", c. 1828–30)—where he incorporated Western shading and perspective and pigments—and "Famous views of the Eastern capital" in the early 1830s, which was certainly influenced by Hokusai's early-1830s "Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji" ("Fugaku sanjūrokkei"). Kuniyoshi also produced during this time works of purely natural subject matter, notably of animals, birds and fish that mimicked traditional Japanese and Chinese painting.
