49歳で日本画家に転向した石田武は、その遅れを取り戻すかのように、日本画家が題材にする理想の風景を、次々に描き腕を磨いていった。長年憧れであった日本画家になれた喜びを素直にかみしめているのかもしれない。
作者にとって富士山も描かないではいられない題材だったに違いない。当館コレクションに富士山の作品が多いことが語っているように、画家にとって日本一の山は、避けられない画題なのである。
石田武には、所属団体もなければ、山種美術館大賞以外に特筆するような受賞歴もない。日本画家に憧れて日本画家になった、それが、かえって彼を際立たせている。ある意味、理想の画家の在り方であった。
Takeshi Ishida, who became a Japanese painter at the age of 49, honed his skills by drawing ideal landscapes that Japanese painters used as the subject one after another as if to make up for that delay. He unaffectedly soaked up the job of being able to become a Japanese painter as he so yearned to be for many years.
There is no doubt that Mt. Fuji was also a subject that the artist had to paint. The number one mountain in Japan is a subject that cannot be avoided for painters as shown by the many pieces of Mt. Fuji in our collection.
Takeshi Ishida does not belong to any organizations and has not won any prizes of special mention other than the Yamatane Museum of Art Grand Award. He longed to become a Japanese painter and then he did so; that makes him stand out. That is the way it should be for a painter in a certain sense.
