Hokusai "Kajikazawa in Kai Province"

This print is one of Hokusai’s most successful series, “Thirty-six Views of Mt. Fuji” and called Aizuri-e which means printed only in shades of blue. The print shows two streams flowing violently into each other, a fisherman on a rugged rock casting his net and the peak of Mt.Fuji soaring out of the morning mist. This is a masterpiece that depicts both the beauty and severity of nature.
