Item from the Mokuhankan Flea MarketMt. Fuji from the Sumida River Size: 22.0cm by 32.0cm (8.66 in by 12.60 in) | Enlargement | Shipping Code: [L] ? Designer: Katsushika Hokusai Era: Early Showa | Currency: $ / £ / € Price:  Description: In the immediate post-war period, the publisher Takamizawa issued a number of prints based on designs by Hokusai, with an interesting twist - they colorised them. Hokusai's famous "One Hundred Views of Mount Fuji" (Fugaku Hyakkei) series was originally issued as a set of three illustrated books, with the entire project being done in muted tones of black and grey. The print you see here - originally a left-right spread in the book - has been re-created as a single sheet, with colours added by the post-war craftsmen. In this print, Mt. Fuji can be seen at a distance from the Sumida river bank, with crowds of Edoites happily enjoying both their hanami party as well as the view of Mt. Fuji in the distance.
