Katsushika Hokusai, Japanese, 1760 to 1849, an original woodblock print depicting a traditional rural view, showing part of Hokusai Manga, a collection of sketches that includes depictions of landscapes, flora and fauna, everyday life, and supernatural elements. The print focuses on natural subjects and garden wares. Created between 1814 and 1819, the Hokusai Manga sheets feature illustrations in three colors: black sumi, light black sumi, and light vermilion. The term manga in this context does not refer to the contemporary storytelling manga but denotes informal drawings or preparatory sketches for paintings during the Edo period. Katsushika Hokusai, known simply as Hokusai, was a Japanese ukiyo e artist of the Edo period, active as a painter and printmaker.Antique asian and Oriental Graphic Art Prints And Collectibles.
