Utagawa Hiroshige´s two Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji series, 1852 and 1858 are both a copy act and in themselves innovative artistic endeavors.
Katsushika Hokusai published his famous series Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji in 1830-1832 and it influenced Hiroshige tremendously to his own series Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji series 1852 which we deal with here.
It is in the same horizontal format for landscapes that Hokusai used. In a subsequent series Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji published in 1858 Hiroshige shifted to the vertical portrait format with novel and interesting results. We deal with that in a separate volume.
It is possible to travel to see the same sites today and enjoy the views of Mt Fuji, which is still very important to the Japanese.
