Katsushikia Hokusai, Images from Hokusai: First Manga Master
Friday, October 30, 2015 at 04:03AM
I checked out the book Hokusai: First Manga Master from the library last week and below are scanned images of some of the pieces I enjoyed most from the book. Hokusai, one of Japan's greatest artists, is probably known best for his woodblock print The Great Wave. He lived from 1760 - 1849. Although all of the pieces scanned below are presented in black and white, Hokusai painted in color, and so I suspect many of these original pieces were done in color.
