Item from the Mokuhankan Flea MarketGeese and Mt. Fuji ReflectedSize: 22.5cm by 30.0cm (8.86 in by 11.81 in) | Enlargement | Shipping Code: [L] ? Designer: Katsushika Hokusai Era: Early Showa | Currency: $ / £ / € Price: ¥ 7,000$ 54.00£ 42.25€ 49.50 Description: This is from Hokusai’s famous ‘One Hundred Views of Mt. Fuji.’ It seems he did an experiment here: instead of drawing the actual figure of the mountain, he chose the reflected shape on the lake - an upside-down Fuji. Hokusai has strongly influenced by the Western way of painting - including color usage, perspective, and more - aiming to break the conventional way of drawing. The birds in the image are a flock of wild geese coming from a northern country late in autumn. Having finally found a land to spend the winter, they are resting here after a long flight. He depicted each bird so realistically that we can almost hear the birds' sounds! This particular print is a post-war reproduction by the Takamizawa Company. This print has slight creases. Our sharp top-light has made the waviness stand out vividly; it's actually not quite so disruptive ... Also, there are a few slight foxing spots in the upper left area.
