Beschreibung
A classic woodblock print from Hokusai's Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji, featuring the Tama River and the iconic mountain peak in a serene, blue-toned composition.
This woodblock print is part of the series Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji, a collection that established Hokusai as a master of the genre. The composition depicts the Tama River, which flows through the Musashi Province, with the iconic silhouette of Mount Fuji rising in the distance. Hokusai employs a clear, horizontal structure to separate the foreground, middle ground, and background, creating a sense of distance and scale.
In the foreground, a traveller leads a horse along the riverbank, while a small boat navigates the water. The artist uses a limited palette, dominated by Prussian blue, a pigment that had recently become available in Japan. This choice of colour provides a cool, atmospheric quality to the water and the sky, contrasting with the neutral tones of the riverbank and the white peak of the mountain. The lines are precise and controlled, characteristic of the high-quality carving required for such prints.
The series was produced during a period when travel within Japan was becoming more popular among the merchant class. Hokusai captures the intersection of human activity and the natural environment. The inclusion of the horse and the boat provides a sense of scale, grounding the monumental presence of the mountain in the daily life of the region. The print demonstrates the technical skill of the carvers and printers who worked with Hokusai, particularly in the subtle gradations of blue in the sky and the water. This work remains a clear example of the aesthetic principles of the Edo period, where the observation of nature was balanced with formal composition and graphic clarity.

Artist Biography
Katsushika Hokusai
Throughout his prolific career, Hokusai produced thousands of prints, sketches and illustrated books. He continually reinvented his style and identity, even adopting over 30 different artist names as his work evolved. His bold compositions, innovative use of perspective and striking colour palettes redefined Japanese printmaking. Hokusai's famed series Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji showcases not just technical mastery, but a spiritual reverence for landscape and everyday life. His work depicted everything from serene rural scenes to mythological creatures and bustling cityscapes.
Hokusai's legacy transcended Japan, profoundly shaping Western art during the 19th century through the movement known as Japonisme. Artists like Monet, Van Gogh and Whistler drew direct inspiration from his compositions and sensibilities. Today, Hokusai is celebrated not only as one of Japan’s greatest artists, but as a bridge between Eastern and Western visual culture. His art continues to captivate modern audiences with its fluid lines, narrative depth and timeless exploration of the human connection to nature.
