Description: This stunning vintage reproduction by Katsushika Hokusai features a beautiful view of Mount Fuji and a river crossing. This woodblock print (reproduction, likely) is made of paper and has a multi-color design. The artist, Hokusai, is known for his exquisite attention to detail and this piece is no exception. The colors are vibrant. Under magnification this is not a dot matrix printing but a woodblock printer other kind of lithograph or print. The art originates from Japan and falls under the category of Asian Antiques. It is an original or reproduction and is made by Hokusai. This piece is perfect for collectors of antiques and those who appreciate the beauty of Japanese art. The original mid 19th century Japanese print from which this was likely reproduced was titled ‘Tōkaidō kanaya no fuji’ by Katsushika Hokusai features porters carrying litters, sedan chairs, and individual persons across the river near the Kanaya station on the Tōkaidō Road, with view of Mount Fuji in the distance. It is known as River Crossing or The Fuji (view) from Kanaya on the Tokaido (highway river crossing). Particularly noteworthy in the artwork is the turbulence of the water against the static and solemn Mount Fuji as travelers cross the Ōi River at Kanaya on the Tōkaidō highway. The upper seal matches the master’s, but I cannot read the Lower right seals. Frames matted with flimsy matting, no glass. Rich colors. Clean.
