Item from the Mokuhankan Flea MarketMt. Fuji from Mountain PathSize: 22.5cm by 30.5cm (8.86 in by 12.01 in) | Enlargement | Shipping Code: [L] ? Designer: Katsushika Hokusai Era: Early Showa | Currency: $ / £ / € Price: ¥ 7,000$ 52.00£ 40.00€ 48.25 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 colourised them. Hokusai's famous "One Hundred Views of Mount Fuji" (Fugaku Hyakkei) 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. It depicts Mount Fuji and travelers probably visiting Taiseki-ji Temple. Fuji itself, the huge rock in the distance, and the steep mountain path are fantastically depicted in perspective.
