EDITORS COMMENTS
Sazai Hall at the Temple of the Five Hundred Arhats (Gohyakurakanji Sazaido)": This woodblock print, created by the renowned Japanese artist Hokusai (1760-1849), showcases Sazai Hall, a significant building at the Temple of the Five Hundred Arhats in Japan. Dating back to the 19th century, this artwork is part of Hokusai's famous series, "Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji (Fugaku sanjurokkei)". The print beautifully captures the back view of the Sazai Hall, with its intricate architectural details and vibrant colors. The building is adorned with a cartouche bearing the title and artist's signature. The serene temple setting is further enhanced by the presence of children in traditional Japanese clothing, adding a touch of warmth and humanity to the scene. The main focus of the print, however, is the majestic Mount Fuji (Fujiyama) in the distance, which is depicted in its iconic oban format. The mountain, revered in Japanese culture as a sacred symbol of peace and tranquility, stands tall and proud against the backdrop of the blue sky. The print also offers a glimpse into the fashion and artistic styles of Edo Japan (1603-1868), with the intricately designed kimonos worn by the figures in the foreground. The use of color woodblock printing techniques adds depth and texture to the artwork, making it a visual feast for the eyes. This stunning print is a testament to Hokusai's artistic mastery and his ability to capture the essence of Japan's rich cultural heritage. It continues to captivate viewers and inspire artists around the world, making it a must-have for any serious art collection or gallery display.
