EDITORS COMMENTS
In this woodcut print titled "Sanki fukaku katachi o kuzusu no fuji, Measuring the shape of Mount Fuji" created by Katsushika Hokusai in approximately 1836, we are transported to a serene landscape where two men embark on a unique journey. The print showcases the meticulous attention to detail and artistic brilliance that Hokusai is renowned for. The scene unfolds with two figures carrying swords, one of them also shouldering a rifle. They pause along their path to indulge in a momentary respite, lighting their pipes as they take in the breathtaking view of Mount Fuji towering majestically in the background. The grandeur and beauty of nature seem to captivate these individuals, who have temporarily set aside their weapons for peaceful contemplation. Hokusai's masterful use of woodcut technique brings life and depth to every element within the composition. From the intricate folds of clothing to the delicate wisps of smoke rising from their pipes, each detail is meticulously rendered. This print not only captures an exquisite snapshot of Japanese culture during Hokusai's time but also reflects his fascination with Mount Fuji as a subject matter throughout his career. It serves as a testament to Hokusai's ability to convey both tranquility and strength through his artistry. Quint Lox has skillfully curated this piece from Liszt Collection, allowing us all to appreciate Hokusai's genius once again.
