Hokusai's Mount Fuji by Jocelyn Bouquillard

This complete collection of Hokusai's famous views of Mount Fuji is the only high-quality reproduction of these engravings, long considered the Japanese master's greatest works. Taken from the best engravings available and shown in splendid color, this authoritative volume is the first of its kind since 1830. Hokusai's influence extended far beyond Japan, even to French Impressionists including Degas, Monet, and Toulouse-Lautrec. Each illustration is accopmanied by detailed notes placing the work in its cultural and historical context and exploring the symbolic themes running through Hokusai's landscapes.
Jocelyn Bouquillard is the curator at the Bibliotheque Nationale de France in the Photography and Prints department. He is an Expert in Japanese prints and his specialty is in landscape prints.
