Image was scanned from slide. Note: "Katsushika Hokusai (葛飾 北斎, October or November 1760 - May 10, 1849) was a Japanese artist, ukiyo-e painter and printmaker of the Edo period. He was influenced by such painters as Sesshu, and other styles of Chinese painting. Born in Edo (now Tokyo), Hokusai is best known as author of the woodblock print series Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji (富嶽三十六景, Fugaku Sanjūroku-kei, c. 1831) which includes the internationally recognized print, The Great Wave off Kanagawa, created during the 1820s."--Wikipedia. Note: "Ejiri-juku was the eighteenth of the fifty-three stations of the Tōkaidō, [now] Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan."--Wikipedia. Note: "Suruga Province (Suruga no kuni) was an old province in the area that is today the central part of Shizuoka prefecture."--Wikipedia. Note: "Ōban: a print size [approximately] 10 x 15 inches (25 x 38 cm)."--Masterworks of Ukiyo-e…by Muneshige Narazaki, English translation by John Bester, page 21.
