Carte Postale Bamboo, Hokusai Japanese Fine Art

Pen and ink drawing on paper Katsushika Hokusai (October or November 1760–May 10, 1849) was a Japanese artist, ukiyo-e painter and printmaker of the Edo period. In his time, he was Japan's leading expert on Chinese painting. Born in Edo (now Tokyo), Hokusai is best-known as author of the woodblock print series Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji (c. 1831) which includes the iconic and internationally recognized print, The Great Wave off Kanagawa, created during the 1820s. This is a drawing on thin handmade paper, in extremely fragile condition. And covered with spots and stains. I wanted to restore it as much as possible without losing the texture of the paper.
