Good Fortune Gold leaf - Mt. Fuji and Cranes

This piece is inspired by “Sōshū Umezawa Left”, one of the prints from Hokusai’s Thirty-Six Views of Mt. Fuji.
Since ancient times, Mt. Fuji has been associated with immortality, symbolizing eternal life. Cranes, meanwhile, are well known as symbols of longevity.
The crane’s call, said to carry high and far, was believed to reach the gods in heaven, making the bird a bridge between humans and the divine.

About Katsushika Hokusai

A master ukiyo-e artist of the late Edo period. He studied under Katsukawa Shunshō, producing actor portraits, bijin-ga (images of beauties), and illustrations. Over time, he absorbed a wide range of influences including the Kanō, Tosa, and Rimpa schools, as well as Chinese and Western painting techniques.
Through his dynamic compositions and vigorous brushwork, he developed a uniquely powerful style that later influenced French Impressionists. His most celebrated works include Hokusai Manga, Thirty-Six Views of Mt. Fuji, and One Thousand Pictures of the Sea.
