| | 1. |  | Hokusai's Mount Fuji: The Complete Views in Color
from Harry N. Abrams, Inc.
Price: $14.00
Customer Review:
I looked at a lot of reviews before buying this book. I wanted one that had all the views together, in color, and that's what I got. The text that accompanies each picture gives helpful information about that picture, without distracting from it. Great book. Exactly what I was hoping for.

Customer Review:
Forrer starts this book with about 35 pages of historical notes, which sketch Hokusai's career and the social milieu in which he lived, albeit with some maddening omissions. The timeline on page 37 notes a brief period in which he was "reduced to penury" - something the narrative seems to skip... more info

Customer Review:
Authors are often advised to "write what you know" but when a Japanese artist in the 19th century defied convention to paint the familiar - - the humblest of peasants, 'fragrant' laborers in fish markets - - wealthy patrons would not buy his art. However, Hokusai persisted and his influence has been... more info
