Painting Description
"Gohyakurakanji Sazaido" is a woodblock print by the renowned Japanese ukiyo-e artist Katsushika Hokusai. This print is part of the series "Fugaku Sanjurokkei" (The Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji), which includes Hokusai's most famous work, "The Great Wave off Kanagawa." Created during the Edo period, this series was produced between 1830 and 1832 and depicts Mount Fuji from various locations and in different seasons and weather conditions.
The "Gohyakurakanji Sazaido" print specifically portrays the Sazai Hall of the Five-Hundred Rakan Temple, also known as Gohyakurakan-ji. The temple, located in the Honjo area of Edo (modern-day Tokyo), was famous for its spiraling, snail-like structure, which provided a panoramic view of the surrounding area, including Mount Fuji. The Rakan, or arhats, are the disciples of the Buddha who have reached a high level of spiritual achievement. The temple was named for the 500 stone statues of these enlightened disciples that it housed.
In Hokusai's depiction, the viewer's eye is drawn to the elegant architectural form of the Sazai Hall, with Mount Fuji visible in the distance. The print captures the interplay between the man-made structure and the natural beauty of the landscape, a theme that resonates throughout the "Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji" series. Hokusai's masterful use of perspective and his ability to convey the atmosphere of the scene make this print a significant work within the series.
The "Fugaku Sanjurokkei" series, including "Gohyakurakanji Sazaido," was instrumental in establishing Hokusai's fame both in Japan and internationally. The prints are celebrated for their innovative composition, vivid use of color, and the influence they had on later artists, including the Impressionists in Europe. Today, "Gohyakurakanji Sazaido" is considered an important example of Hokusai's artistic legacy and a valuable piece of world art history.
