Japanese Art

Japanese art, usually in the form of lithographs, are some of the beautiful and intriguing art works in the world. There are two prominent masters of the art. Katsushika Hokusai (usually referred to simply as Hokusai) is famous for the Under the Wave of Kanagawa (often referred to as "The Great Wave of Kanagawa"), part of his 36 Views of Mount Fuji series. The second is Kawase Hasui, known as the painter of clouds.
