Katsushika Hokusai (1760 – 1849) was a Japanese ukiyo-e (pictures of the floating world) painter and printmaker and painter, born in Edo (now Tokyo), and is best known for his woodblock print series Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji c. 1830-35 which includes the internationally recognised print The Great Wave off Kanagawa.
Hokusai created the series both as a
response to a domestic travel boom and as part of a personal obsession with
Mount Fuji itself. It was this series that secured Hokusai’s fame both in Japan
and overseas.
