The three scrolls
Under the Wave off Kanagawa神奈川沖浪裏
The best-known wave in the world
Sometimes called the most famous picture after Leonardo's Mona Lisa. Debussy put this wave on the cover of the first edition of his symphonic sketches La Mer.

Fine Wind, Clear Morning凱風快晴
Fuji set squarely in front of us
Many pictures show Fuji, but none places it this squarely and boldly. It is said to show the mountain a moment before the morning sun turns it red.

Rainstorm beneath the Summit山下白雨
A shower under a clear sky
Hakuu is rain that falls while the sky is clear. The summit stands in fine weather while lightning runs across the lower slopes — brightness above, darkness below. From where did Hokusai see this Fuji?

Buying a Hokusai painted by his own hand
Hokusai is known for prints. He also painted directly with the brush — one sheet, one hand, no block between. The gallery currently holds twelve album leaves, five hanging-scroll works in six scrolls, three fan paintings — twenty paintings in all, one of them sold — and three Thirty-six Views reprinted and mounted as scrolls.

Hokusai's Colours, Brought Back
The colours Hokusai meant us to see can no longer be seen as they were. The International Hokusai Society of the Japan Art Academy supervised the colours, the prints were pulled again with techniques unbroken since Edo, and the three were mounted as hanging scrolls. Here are the colours and the handwork, in pictures.
