by Amelie Balcou Hokusai’s beloved series of woodblock prints is now available in a stunning new format that honors the Japanese bookmaking tradition and illuminates the artist’s radiant colors and exquisite lines. Hokusai’s series depicting Mount Fuji is widely considered to be the pinnacle of his career. This beautiful, boxed accordion- fold edition comprises the full set of forty-six prints (the original thirty-six and ten more that were completed later) and features a luxurious silken binding along with a separate explanatory booklet. The book and booklet are packaged in an elegant slipcase. Devoted entirely to landscapes, Hokusai’s series shows Mount Fuji from various viewpoints, framed in different ways. An indefatigable traveler who was passionate about nature, Hokusai explored every vantage point and season at the volcano. He presented it both as a solitary and majestic snow-capped peak and as a smaller object on a distant horizon. Hokusai also portrayed the mountain as an element in Japanese daily life and as an imposing force of nature that can be peaceful and beneficent, or ferocious and unforgiving. These impeccably reproduced prints invite readers to examine Hokusai’s virtuosic use of color and composition, his talent for contrasting perspectives, and his interest in the dueling roles of man and nature. An exquisite objet d’art, this volume is the perfect vehicle for appreciating Hokusai’s crowning achievement in all its lasting and subtle beauty. 138 pages Published 2019Hokusai, Mount Fuji Socks
In Edo, Hokusai painted a scene of picnickers under cherry blossoms at Gotenyama. The spot offered stunning views of Mount Fuji and Sagami Bay. Today, Shinagawa is a busy Tokyo district. Another artist, Utagawa Toyoharu, also painted Gotenyama but from a different angle. Picnics, cherry blossoms, and Mount Fuji - a timeless tale of joy and beauty.Hokusai "The Great Wave" Folding Travel Umbrella
