Katsushika Hokusai – Thirty Six Views of Mount Fuji (Little Museum Series)

Description This is a postcard book of works by Katsushika Hokusai. It contains a total of 32 sheets, each page usable as a postcard. Hokusai is said to have mastered not only the traditional techniques of Japanese Yamato-e painting, but also a variety of techniques from both the East and the West. In fact, in Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji, he skillfully incorporated and blended Western perspective, the compositional methods of Yamato-e, and the Chinese shading techniques that were considered the latest at the time. He also used not only the traditional mineral pigments that had long been employed, but also a new pigment called “Prussian blue,” which had been imported from the West during that period. The reason why *Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji* is regarded as a masterpiece is precisely because it represents a work in which Hokusai poured in everything he had accumulated and reached a certain pinnacle. —Excerpt from the commentary— Category：Japanese Art Book, Japanese greeting card Tag：Katsushika Hokusai, Little Museum Series, Postcard, ukiyoe Pages： 64 ISBN： 9784861523038 Release Date: May, 2011 Language: Japanese Publisher: Seigensha Author profile Katsushika Hokusai Katsushika Hokusai, known simply as Hokusai, was a Japanese artist, ukiyo-e painter and printmaker of the Edo period.
