Hokusai woodblock prints

Atami MOA museum has started exhibition of Hokusai wood block prints "the 36 views of Mt. Fuji".  These were published by Nishimura Eijudo in 1831.  The museum collection has been kept in good condition and original printing color stays clear.  Of the 36 images, "the great wave" and "the red Fuji" were the most popular and we have the same images in our 4-panel screens.  Please see the photos in our Scenary web page.
