A Masterpiece Born from Innovation ππ¨
Created circa 1830-1832 during Hokusai's most inventive period, this extraordinary woodblock print showcases the artist at his absolute peak. At over seventy years old, Hokusai was experimenting boldly with composition, perspective, and the revolutionary Prussian blue pigment freshly imported from Europe. This striking cobalt hue, known as "bero-aoi" in Japanese, transforms the turbulent waters of the Fuji River into a mesmerising symphony of blues that seems to pulse with life.
The composition itself is pure genius: a lone fisherman, accompanied by his young assistant, casts multiple lines from a precarious green promontory into the churning river below. Mount Fuji rises serenely in the distance, its iconic triangular form echoing the geometric patterns created by the fishing lines. This visual metaphor connecting human labour to nature's eternal presence makes this print an enduring favourite among art connoisseurs and interior designers alike.
What makes Kajikazawa truly exceptional is Hokusai's masterful use of bokashi gradation technique. Notice how the subtle horizontal bands of blue create remarkable depth, drawing your eye from the dramatic foreground action towards Fuji's tranquil silhouette. The fisherman's curved posture mirrors the rolling waves and rocky contours, creating a visual rhythm that unifies the entire composition.
