Fujishima Takeji was a famous artist that was well-known throughout Japan during his lifetime. He was commissioned in 1928 to paint a series of works that would adorn the Showa Emperor’s study hall. The artist made the decision to paint a scene depicting a sunrise in an effort to portray the Emperor’s ascension to power. He spent quite a few years traveling and searching for perfect sunrises throughout different parts of Japan, as well as Taiwan, which was a Japanese colony at the time. He finally painted Sunrise over the Eastern Sea in 1932.
