A Masterpiece by the World-Renowned Ukiyo-e Artist Katsushika Hokusai, Captured on a Glass Tray
This elegant glass tray brings Hokusai’s celebrated work into daily life, perfect for holding stationery or accessories and allowing you to keep a masterpiece close at hand. About Katsushika Hokusai (1760–1849) A ukiyo-e master of the late Edo period, Hokusai produced actor portraits, bijin-ga (pictures of beautiful women), and book illustrations. He also absorbed techniques from the Kanō school, Tosa school, Rinpa, as well as Chinese and Western painting styles. With his bold compositions, powerful sense of structure, and dynamic brushwork, Hokusai achieved a distinctive artistic vision whose influence extended even to the French Impressionists. His major works include Hokusai Manga, Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji, and One Thousand Pictures of the Sea. “Fine Wind, Clear Morning” (Gaifū Kaisei) The word gaifū refers to a southern wind. This masterpiece depicts the phenomenon seen in late summer to early autumn when Mt. Fuji, bathed in the morning sun, glows a deep red. Known affectionately as “Red Fuji,” the image has long been cherished both in Japan and abroad as an auspicious motif symbolizing good fortune. The Great Wave off Kanagawa (Kanagawa-oki Namiura) Viewed from off the coast of Honmoku in present-day Yokohama, this work—along with Fine Wind, Clear Morning and Sudden Shower over Shin-Ōhashi Bridge and Atake—is counted among Hokusai’s “Three Great Masterpieces.” Renowned worldwide as one of the most iconic works of Japanese ukiyo-e, it portrays towering waves tossing boats upon the sea, contrasted with the calm and dignified presence of Mount Fuji, a composition that has captivated people across eras and cultures.
