Hokusai Kuro Fuji Decorative Plate

This plate features “Kuro(Black)Fuji”, said to be a twin of “Aka(Red)Fuji” by Katsushika Hokusai.

Different from the majestic and generous Fuji in “Aka Fuji,” “Kuro Fuji” depicts a wild and stormy Mt Fuji with the summer cumulonimbus clouds and lightning, giving the impression of nature’s strength and dynamism.

Hokusai draws many pictures with Mt. Fuji as a motif. Mt. Fuji, a mountain loved by Japanese people, changes its appearance surprisingly depending on the season and weather, but Hokusai’s deep observation and skillful expressiveness give each painting a depth and wonderful impression.

The size is great for serving side dishes, breads, desserts and fruits. It also makes a perfect home decoration when used with a stand.

It is a perfect gift for people who love Japanese art and culture.
