KATSUSHIKA HOKUSAI

Was a Japanese ukiyo-e artist of the Edo period, active as a painter and print maker. He is best known for the woodblock print series Thirty-six views of Mount Fuji 🗻, which includes the iconic print ‘The Great Wave of Kanagawa’.

Katsushika Hokusai

‘The Great Wave of Kanagawa’ (1831)

Created in the late 1831 during the Edo period of Japanese history. The print depicts three boats moving through a storm-tossed sea, with a large wave forming a spiral in the centre and Mount Fuji in the background.

Another print called ‘kirifuri waterfall on Mount Kurokami in Shimotsuke province’ (1832-1833). This shows a falling mist waterfall on Mount Kurokami in Shimotsuke province, It is one of the most famous falls of the area. It descends about 100 feet in two steps, each about 33 feet wide and as it falls the water broken up by the craggy cliffs, spreads itself like a moving tapestry into many cascades, creating a mist that chills the air.

‘Kirifuri Waterfall on Mount Kurokami in Shimotsuke’ (1832-1833)

The fall is presented in an extreme close-up view as a bizarre pattern, the broken water then splashes into the pool beneath.

Really given the sense of flow in this print from the description given shows the journey and movement of this waterfall.

On this day, one year ago...

Today I went to Kegon Waterfall in the morning, but honestly wasn't all that enamoured. I think after Kirifuri Falls no other waterfall could compete 😅 What didn't help is that I was PMSing, so I wasn't exactly in the best frame of mind.

But I didn't want to waste the day, so I walked up to Kanmangafuchi Abyss. It was either this day or the day before that I tried to rent a bike but couldn't figure out where to go. Google Timelines says both 😅 Anyway, it wasn't too far so I walked it, just listened to some music and enjoyed the lovely weather and the peaceful surroundings. I saw a snake too! :D

Just like yesterday, I cannot remember if it was today or yesterday I walked down the main market street in Nikko. Google Timelines says I walked a lot, and says I walked down that route, so maybe it was today??? 😅 Again, bad memory. I remember it being a nice walk, though.

I rested in the AirBnB in the afternoon. I was feeling pretty miserable by now. Period had started and I was NOT feeling great. So I thought, fuck it, it was the biggest Stardom show of the year that afternoon/evening, and finally I could watch it live at a sensible hour, as I was in Japan, so I decided to get some chocolate and dinner, bring it back to the AirBnB, and watch the show.

I went to Enya again, because it was reliable and they did takeout. As I was waiting, they brought me a cup of tea to wait with! I was so touched. I didn't order it, and they didn't charge me or ask me to pay, but they remembered I had a tea with my meals there, and brought me one while my food was getting cooked. Genuinely made my day.

The Stardom show was awesome too :D

A nice evening to cap off my trip to Nikko.

Kirifuri Waterfall at Mount Kurokami in Shimotsuke Province, Katsushika Hokusai, c. 1832, Minneapolis Institute of Art: Japanese and Korean Art

omohan ai-zuri Tokugawa Ieyasu (1542–1616) chose the mountainous region north of Edo as the site of his mausoleum. The construction of roadways into the area made it a popular destination for ordinary travelers, who journeyed from afar to pay their respects to the founder of the Tokugawa shogunate. Visitors also enjoyed the area’s natural beauty, which included several spectacular waterfalls. Hokusai’s vision of Kirifuri Falls is an especially dynamic image in his waterfall series. He depicted only the lower portion of the two-tier falls but has it dominate the picture, thereby emphasizing its scale and power. The diminutive human figures—viewing the falls from a spit of land in the foreground and walking and kneeling precariously partway up the steep slope—accentuate the falls’ grandeur. Size: 15 1/8 × 10 1/4 in. (38.4 × 26.1 cm) (image, sheet, vertical ōban) Medium: Woodblock print (nishiki-e); ink and color on paper
