Collection: 36 Views of Mount Fuji

When the ukiyo-e artist Hokusai (1760-1849) started the series 36 Views of Mount Fuji in 1830 he was seventy years old and at the peak of his creativity and artistic vigor.

Each of the designs show the sacred Mount Fuji - either very visible or sometimes as a small detail in the background. The series is a landmark in Japanese woodblock printmaking of the 19th century.
