About Katsushika Hokusai
Katsushika Hokusai, born Tokitaro in Edo, was an internationally known Japanese artist, painter, and printmaker who lived from 1760 to 1849. He became a leading master of the ukiyo-e genre, producing woodblock prints and paintings that captured landscapes, flora, fauna, and scenes of daily life. Throughout his lengthy career spanning over seven decades, he used dozens of art names to mark different phases of his creative evolution. His most famous achievement is the woodblock print series Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji, created in the early 1830s, which includes the iconic print The Great Wave off Kanagawa. This masterpiece significantly influenced Western art, especially Impressionism and Post-Impressionism in late nineteenth-century Europe. Hokusai also created the Hokusai Manga, a fifteen-volume collection of sketches that documented Japanese culture and folklore. His innovative compositions, dynamic lines, and use of Prussian blue transformed Japanese landscape art until his death at age eighty-eight.
