- Summary:
-
Katsushika Hokusai (1760-1849) is considered the most important representative of the Japanese woodcut art in the ukiyo-e tradition. In addition to its world-famous woodcuts, such as the 36 Views of Mount Fuji, which are regarded as icons of art history, he also created paintings, wrote and illustrated novels and coined the now popular concept of Manga to. His colorful motives have strongly influenced Western art; particularly in the Impressionism and Japonism numerous bonds found on Hokusai's work. This equally extravagant as aesthetically designed monograph pays tribute to the artist in all facets and simultaneously presents the latest research.
