Fuji)Circa 1831-33 Author--------------------------------------------------Hokusai Katsushika (1760-1849) Katsushika Hokusai celebrated the 260th anniversary of his birth in 2020.He is a world-renowned painter whose masterpieces include "Fugaku Sanjurokkei (Thirty-six Views of Mt. Fuji)" and "Hokusai Manga (Hokusai Manga)," and in 1999 he was the only Japanese artist ranked 86th on the "100 Most Important People of the World in the Last 1000 Years" by Life magazine, a U.S. publication.The wide range of subjects in the more than 30,000 works he produced during his lifetime is so wide-ranging that he has been called "the master of all things in the universe, and there is nothing he has not done. In addition to prints, he also excelled in ukiyoe, and continued to explore a variety of genres, including portrayals of actors, portraits of beautiful women, and illustrations for books.Many of his works, including his masterpiece "Fugaku Sanjurokkei (Thirty-six Views of Mt. Fuji)" and "Denjin Kaite Hokusai Manga (The Manga of Hokusai)," are known to have had a great influence not only in Japan but also far across the sea on 19th century European impressionist painters such as Van Gogh (1853-90), Cezanne (1839-1906) and Gauguin (1848-1903). He is also known for his influence on Van Gogh (1853-90), Cézanne (1839-1906) and Gauguin (1848-1903). He changed his name (his name as a painter) 30 times, moved more than 90 times (sometimes 5 times a day!). He was a man of many eccentric episodes, and visitors to his home would even say, "Hokusai sat at his desk in dirty clothes, with packages of food scattered nearby.He was 90 years old in the Edo period (1603-1867), when the average life expectancy was in the 40s, and yet, as he was dying, he lamented, "If only the heavens would give me five more years to live, I could become a true painter. This is exactly what he said in his last year of life. Red Fuji will bring you luck!--------------------------------------------------This work is one of the three representative paintings of the "Fugaku Sanjurokkei (Thirty-six Views of Mt. Fuji) series" by Katsushika Hokusai, and is also known by the name "Akafuji" (Red Fuji), a well-known work. The painting depicts the dawn gradually breaking in the clear sky (clear skies) with a soft southerly breeze (triumphant wind), while the mountainside in the middle is reddening in the still-darkness of the summit. Red Fuji is known to bring good luck and is also a seasonal word for summer.The term describes the phenomenon of Mt. Fuji turning red in the morning sun, mainly from late summer to early autumn.The phenomenon can be seen only a few minutes after sunrise.Did Katsushika Hokusai know about the Golden Hour? Since it is rarely seen, there is a theory that those who are able to see the red Fuji are spared from disasters, and that their wishes for prosperity will come true.It has long been known as a subject of paintings, and numerous painters have left their works.Before Hokusai, the literati painter Suzuki Fuyo painted "Red Fuji with Rising Dragon and Dragon Dragon" in 1771, and in 1821, Noro Sakaishi painted Red Fuji in his "Red Jade Fuyo Peak".
