Painting Description
"Fugaku Hyakkei" (富嶽百景), translated as "One Hundred Views of Mount Fuji," is a monumental series of woodblock prints by the celebrated Japanese ukiyo-e artist Katsushika Hokusai (葛飾 北斎). Created between 1834 and 1849, this collection is considered one of Hokusai's masterpieces and a pinnacle of Japanese landscape art. The series comprises three volumes, each containing numerous prints that depict Mount Fuji from various perspectives and in different seasons and weather conditions, showcasing the mountain's enduring presence in the cultural and spiritual life of Japan.
Hokusai, who lived from 1760 to 1849, was in his seventies when he began working on "One Hundred Views of Mount Fuji," bringing to the project a lifetime of artistic experience and a deep personal fascination with the mountain. The series is characterized by its inventive compositions, intricate detail, and the use of a limited color palette, which contrasts with the more colorful style of Hokusai's earlier works, such as the famous "Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji," which includes the iconic print "The Great Wave off Kanagawa."
The prints in "Fugaku Hyakkei" not only celebrate the physical beauty of Mount Fuji but also explore its symbolic significance. The mountain is presented in relation to the daily lives of people from various strata of society, as well as in mythological and historical contexts. Hokusai's innovative use of perspective and his ability to capture the essence of Mount Fuji in a multitude of settings and moods have made "One Hundred Views of Mount Fuji" a timeless testament to the artist's skill and creativity.
The series has had a profound influence on the development of landscape art in Japan and has been admired for its artistic and cultural significance both domestically and internationally. Today, "Fugaku Hyakkei" is highly regarded as a masterpiece of ukiyo-e and is studied for its contributions to the understanding of Japanese aesthetics, as well as its impact on Western artists during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, particularly the Impressionist and Post-Impressionist movements. The prints from "One Hundred Views of Mount Fuji" are held in numerous museum collections worldwide and continue to be celebrated for their beauty and historical importance.
