A Picture of Change for a World in Constant Motion
An animated and annotated walk through of a woodblock print by Katsushika Hokusai: “Ejiri in Suruga Province,” from his renowned cycle “Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji.” Written in 2020 by Jason Farago, an art critic for the New York Times, the charming and informative annotation and enlarged images provide excellent historical background for this period in Tokugawa history and examples of artistic exchange between Japanese and other Western traditions of the time.
