About this title

Synopsis

This complete collection of Hokusai s famous views of Mount Fuji is the only high-quality reproduction of these engravings, long considered the Japanese master s greatest works. Taken from the best engravings available and shown in splendid color, this authoritative volume is the first of its kind since 1830. Hokusai s influence extended far beyond Japan, even to French Impressionists including Degas, Monet, and Toulouse-Lautrec. Each illustration is accopmanied by detailed notes placing the work in its cultural and historical context and exploring the symbolic themes running through Hokusai s landscapes.
