- Sanka Hakuu (Shower Below the Summit) -

The iconic Japanese woodblock print, 'Sanka Hakuu' (Shower Below the Summit), is by Hokusai Katsushika (1760–1849), from the series "Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji" (Fugaku sanjūrokkei). This is a re-carved edition, published by Oedo Mokuhan-sha in Showa 62 nen (1987). The publisher's seal, supervisor's seal, carver's seal, and printer's seal are on the right margin. This high-quality print by the famous publisher showcases a strikingly beautiful image. In my opinion, among all the re-carved prints I have seen so far, this one exhibits the highest quality. The print came off of the original presentation folder. However, it still comes with a folder.
