ENGLISH

Hokusai (1760-1849), one of Japan’s foremost artists, was born in Edo, present-day Tokyo. From one teacher he learned woodblock printing; from another he learned design. His first prints appeared in 1779. He published under almost 100 different names, such as the Old Man Who Loves to Paint. He adopted the name Hokusai in 1797. While he also painted portraits and still lifes, it was as a landscape artist that Hokusai achieved fame. Best known is his series of views of Mount Fuji. In addition to prints, Hokusai also drew and painted. His remarkable depictions of scenes from real life and his experiments with technique had a huge impact on his contemporaries. One admirer was the young Hiroshige. Western artists such as Van Gogh and Gauguin also drew inspiration from Hokusai’s work. Hokusai died in his native Edo.

NEDERLANDS

Katsushika Hokusai (Japans: 葛飾北斎, Katsushika Hokusai) (Edo31 oktober 1760 – aldaar, 10 mei 1849) was een Japanse prentkunstenaar, schilder en tekenaar. Hij hield zich vooral bezig met het maken van houtsnedeprenten, beter bekend als ukiyo-e. Hokusai heeft binnen alle genres van ukiyo-e gewerkt, maar het beroemdst werd hij door zijn landschapsafbeeldingen. Zijn leven vat de overgang samen van de elegantie in de prentkunst van de 18e eeuw tot het hoogtepunt ervan in de 19e eeuw. Tot zijn bekendste werken behoren De grote golf bij Kanagawa, de Zesendertig gezichten op de berg Fuji en zijn Manga.
