EDITORS COMMENTS
Storm below Mount Fuji (Sanka no haku u), from the series Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji (Fugaku sanjurokkei), ca. 1830-32) captures the awe-inspiring power of nature in a mesmerizing woodblock print by Hokusai. This masterpiece, part of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection, showcases Hokusai's exceptional talent and his deep connection with Japan's iconic landmark. In this vibrant artwork, we witness a dramatic clash between the majestic Mount Fuji and an approaching storm. The dark clouds loom ominously over the mountain, creating a stark contrast against its snow-capped peak. Lightning pierces through the sky, illuminating both land and sea with its electrifying energy. Hokusai masterfully employs ink and color on paper to bring this scene to life. His meticulous attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, capturing not only the raw power of nature but also its delicate nuances. The swirling waves beneath Mount Fuji reflect both chaos and harmony as they dance along with the stormy winds. This woodblock print is a testament to Hokusai's unparalleled skill in ukiyo-e art—a genre that flourished during Japan's Edo period—and solidifies his status as one of Japan's most celebrated artists. Through this image, viewers are transported into a world where nature reigns supreme—a reminder of our humble place within it.
