The alternation of jagged peaks, eroded by wind action, contrasts with both the purity of Fuji's lines and the flowing undulation of the waters below. To emphasize the contrast, Hokusai carefully draws eight separate peaks, even though all eight cannot actually be seen from a single vantage point.\u003cbr\u003eJudging by the similarity of the mountain line to that drawn in the plate entitled \u003cem\u003eShinshu Suwako (Lake Suwa in Shinano Province)\u003c\/em\u003e from the series \u003cem\u003eThirty-six Views of Mount Fuji\u003c\/em\u003e, it could be the same lake. However, considering the tumultuousness of the waters, which ill suits the calm surface of a lake, Suzuki hypothesizes it to be the nearby Chikuma River.\u003cbr\u003eThe design of the undulating movement of the water is also found in a plate from \u003cem\u003eHokusai Manga\u003c\/em\u003e vol.
