Artist: Katsushika Hokusai (1760–1849) Series: Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji Title: Owari Province – Fuji Seen from Fujimigahara (尾州不二見原) Technique: Traditional Japanese woodblock print (later edition / high-quality reproduction) Period: Showa period, mid-20th century Origin: Japan Description This striking ukiyo-e print depicts a cooper working inside an enormous wooden barrel, through which Mount Fuji is framed in the distance. The bold circular form of the barrel creates a powerful compositional contrast with the calm, horizontal landscape beyond, clearly demonstrating Hokusai’s exceptional sense of design and perspective. This composition is one of the most iconic images from Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji, celebrated for its dynamic geometry and symbolic contrast between human labor and the timeless presence of Mount Fuji. The print features soft yet vivid colors, with well-balanced blues, greens, and warm skin tones. Subtle gradation in the sky and water reflects the refined carving and printing techniques characteristic of high-quality later editions produced using traditional methods. Condition Very good vintage condition. Light age-related toning to the paper is present. A few small foxing spots can be seen on the margins, but they do not affect the image area. Minor creases and gentle waviness are visible, consistent with age. No major tears or losses observed. Please refer carefully to the photos, as they form part of the description. Dimensions Print size: approximately 38.6 × 26.2 cm (width × height) (Measurements are approximate.) Additional Notes This work is ideal for collectors of Japanese woodblock prints, admirers of Hokusai, or anyone seeking a visually powerful and culturally significant image of Mount Fuji. A timeless composition with strong decorative appeal and enduring collector interest.
