EDITORS COMMENTS
In this woodcut print titled "Hebi taiji no fuji, Snake chasing Mount Fuji" created by the renowned artist Katsushika Hokusai between 1760 and 1849, we are transported to a serene landscape that evokes both awe and intrigue. The scene unfolds with a thatched-roof dwelling nestled next to a magnificent tree, standing tall against the backdrop of majestic mountains. The focal point of the artwork is undoubtedly the snake gracefully slithering through the foreground, seemingly in pursuit of Japan's iconic peak - Mount Fuji. Its sinuous form creates an elegant contrast against the rigid lines of nature surrounding it. As viewers, we are left wondering about the symbolic significance behind this intriguing chase. Hokusai masterfully captures nature's power and beauty through his meticulous woodcut technique. Each line and stroke adds depth to every element within this composition; from the intricate details on the roof of the dwelling to the delicate foliage on each branch of the tree. The artist's attention to detail transports us into this tranquil world where man-made structures harmoniously coexist with nature's grandeur. This particular print measures 21.3 x 14.3 cm, showcasing Hokusai's ability to create such breathtaking scenes within a compact space. It serves as a testament to his artistic prowess and enduring legacy as one of Japan's most celebrated artists. Quint Lox has expertly captured all these elements in their photograph print from Liszt Collection, allowing art enthusiasts worldwide
