Hokusai: Early Works
Hokusai (1760-1849) is not only among Japan’s greatest ukiyo-e artists, but also an inimitable master in the history of art worldwide. However, before the Great Wave crested white and Red Fuji broke the horizon, Hokusai completed a variety of prints with intricate detail and enchanting intimacy. From lavish, privately commissioned works and sublime genre prints, to steamy shunga and tiny landscapes, Ronin Gallery invites you explore Hokusai’s early genius between 1790 and 1815. Produced in very small editions, these Hokusai prints are exceedingly rare.
