1804
From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
Fuji from Ushibori, Province of Hitachi is a 1804 by Katsushika Hokusai, a Romanticism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This print shows a long, narrow boat cutting through calm water, with two people inside. In the background, tall grass lines the shore, and a mountain rises in the distance. A few birds float near the boat, and the sky is flat and pale. The mountain looks like it’s covered in mist, making it fade into the sky. The artist used simple lines and soft shading to create depth. Next, look up *Katsushika Hokusai* to see more of his work.
Katsushika Hokusai spent his life in Edo, now Tokyo, where he drew and carved prints for a living.
