✦内容简介——

这是一本精美插图的豪华大幅版，介绍了葛饰北斋，他是日本江户时代多产的艺术家，也是浮世绘大师——“漂浮世界的图像”。

葛饰北斋(1760-1849)是日本江户时代多产、多样化的艺术家，其作品被认为包括3万多幅素描、油画和版画。葛饰北斋追溯了这个孩子的职业生涯，他来自旧东京的一个工人阶级区，当时被称为江户，唤起了这个伟大城市的特殊氛围，以及当时日本对外国人关闭大门的日本生活。其城市中心的财富和稳定不断增长，导致了艺术和享乐文化的繁荣。被称为浮世绘的木版版画——“漂浮世界的图像”——成为那个时代的标志性图像。

葛饰北斋成为木刻大师之一。他的作品从流行演员的肖像到风景和海景，包括他的“富士山三十六景”，从对日常生活场景的巧妙观察到的版画。19世纪末，印象派画家和美学家重新开发了这种“狂野的画笔”，他这样称呼自己。虽然他的版画对西方艺术产生了巨大的影响，但他自己也同样受到了欧洲绘画的影响，他接受了透视等技术，并根据日本人的口味进行了调整。他仍然是世界美术界伟大的人物。

A deluxe, large-format edition of this beautifully illustrated introduction to Katsushika Hokusai, the most prolific artist of Japan's Edo period and master of ukiyo-e―"images of the floating world."

Katsushika Hokusai (1760–1849) was the most prolific and diverse artist of Japan's Edo period, with a body of work reputed to include more than 30,000 drawings, paintings, and prints. Hokusai traces the career of this child from a working-class district of old Tokyo, then known as Edo, evoking the special atmosphere of this great city and of Japanese life at a time when Japan was closed to foreigners. Its urban centers enjoyed increasing wealth and stability, leading to a flourishing culture of art and pleasure-seeking. Woodblock prints of the genre known as ukiyo-e―"images of the floating world"―became defining images of the age.

Hokusai became one of the great masters of the woodcut. His works range from portraits of popular actors and courtesans to landscapes and seascapes, including his celebrated "Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji," and from cleverly observed scenes of everyday life to the prints known as shunga. This "brush gone wild," as he called himself, was rediscovered by the Impressionists and aesthetes at the end of the nineteenth century. While his prints had a huge influence on the course of Western art, it is equally true that he himself was influenced by European painting, embracing techniques such as perspective and adapting them to suit Japanese tastes. He remains one of the greatest figures of world art.
