葛飾北斎「諸国滝廻り 木曾路ノ奥阿弥陀の滝」アダチ版復刻浮世絵

The Amida Falls in the Far Reaches of the Kisokaido Road -Tour of Waterfalls in Various Province-

This print is one of Hokusai’s successful series, “Tour of Waterfalls in Various Province”. In this waterfall series, Hokusai pursued the expression of water and this work is the most impressive one in 8 designs. He depicted the Amida waterfall from two different points of view. The top part looks more abstract like a Japanese traditional pattern, Kanzemizu and the middle to bottom part is depicted as a powerful stream.

Hokusai produced his very first print in 1779 at the age of twenty. It was an actor print in the hosoban format signed Katsukawa Shunro. He built his career by creating more actor prints but was mainly active as a book illustrator.Hokusai also produced paintings throughout his life and his works surpassed those of other ukiyo-e masters in terms of both quality and quantity. He began to draw designs for large, single-sheet prints after the age of seventy. At this time he also started to produce landscape and flowers and birds prints; late in life he did however again concentrate on book illustrations and paintings. In summary Hokusai can be said to have contributed greatly to the field of ukiyo-e in a variety of ways.
