Item from the Mokuhankan Flea MarketMt. Fuji from Bamboo Grove Size: 22.5cm by 30.5cm (8.86 in by 12.01 in) | Enlargement | Shipping Code: [L] ? Designer: Katsushika Hokusai Era: Early Showa | Currency: $ / £ / € Price:  Description: This is an image originally from Hokusai's masterwork ‘One Hundred Views of Mt. Fuji’. Mt. Fuji is seen beyond a bamboo grove; both of these are quite heavily stylized - the steepness of the mountain is very much exaggerated, and the bamboo stems have been curved into shapes not normally seen in nature. Hokusai mixed the thick and narrow bamboo, and also included shoots of different heights - this creates a very rhythmic mood. The very subtle gray clouds in the sky are covering part of Mt. Fuji, which helps create a sense of perspective. Over all, Hokusai has created a very attractive composition, but it is interesting to remember that the original version - in the One Hundred Views book - was printed in faint grey tones. The coloring you see here was created by Takamizawa's artisans. There are slight foxing spots at the margins.      Browse thumbnail pages of various selections from the catalogue ...
