Pocket Lib Hokusai

by Keith Pointing

Though most people are familiar with the image The Great Wave off Kanagawa and intuitively recognise it as Japanese in origin few are aware it is a print created by the famous Japanese artist Katsushika Hokusai (1760 – 1849). This monograph of his work, now available as an ebook, provides a brief biography of his life together with copious colour illustrations of his work, including both The Great Wave and a sample of Thirty-Six Views of Mt. Fuji, two of his most famous works. View this book on your iPad or Android to fully appreciate its lavish full colour illustrations.
