Hokusai, a master of the Ukiyo-e style, was a prolific Japanese artist best known for his series 'Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji'. His work influenced many Western artists during the Japonism craze of the late 19th century. \n\nThe print depicts the two wrestlers locked in a dynamic struggle. The figures are rendered with precise linework and subtle gradations of colour, typical of Japanese woodblock printing. The composition focuses on the wrestlers' intertwined bodies, emphasising their strength and the intensity of the competition. The background is simple, with minimal detail to keep the attention on the central figures. The wrestlers are nearly nude, save for their mawashi belts, which are coloured a pale red with gold fringe. The print showcases Hokusai's skill in capturing movement and expression within the constraints of the woodblock medium.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/impression-sunrise-claude-monet\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eImpression, Sunrise - Claude Monet — Claude Monet\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/a-woman-reading-berthe-morisot\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eA Woman Reading - Berthe Morisot — Berthe Morisot\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Katsushika Hokusai","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":57589499527503,"sku":null,"price":25.2,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":57589519745359,"sku":null,"price":31.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":57589519778127,"sku":null,"price":40.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ -","offer_id":57589519810895,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ -","offer_id":57589519843663,"sku":null,"price":49.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":57589519876431,"sku":null,"price":40.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":57589519909199,"sku":null,"price":40.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":57589519941967,"sku":null,"price":40.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":57589519974735,"sku":null,"price":54.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":57589520007503,"sku":null,"price":54.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":57589520040271,"sku":null,"price":54.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":57589520073039,"sku":null,"price":81.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":57589520105807,"sku":null,"price":81.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":57589520138575,"sku":null,"price":81.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":57589520171343,"sku":null,"price":105.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":57589520204111,"sku":null,"price":105.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":57589520236879,"sku":null,"price":105.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":57589520269647,"sku":null,"price":135.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":57589520302415,"sku":null,"price":135.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":57589520335183,"sku":null,"price":135.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/file_3fac1639-8536-436b-a726-11c32c0ec578.jpg?v=1777458160","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.co.uk\/products\/the-sumo-wrestlers-wadagahara-jinshiro-and-kachozan-gorokichi-katsushika-hokusai-1","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
