Snowy Morning in Koishikawa

Snowy Morning in Koishikawa

$95.00

The morning after a snowfall in Koishikawa, a district of Edo that is now part of Tokyo. Guests in an upstairs teahouse room have turned away from their meal to look at Mount Fuji, and one of them is pointing. The snow is bare paper, left unprinted. Hokusai made very few snow scenes, which makes this one unusual in the series.

Katsushika Hokusai, colour woodblock print, about 1830 to 1835

Pairs well with

Printed on Hahnemühle Photo Rag, a 308 gsm matte paper made from 100% cotton. It is acid free and lignin free, which is what stops a print from yellowing as it ages.

The ink is pigment, laid down by a Canon imagePROGRAF PRO-4600. Pigment holds its colour far longer than dye inks.

Every print is produced to order in our Toronto studio, trimmed and inspected before it is packed. Nothing is outsourced.

Measurements are the full sheet, including the white border. Every size we offer is a standard frame size. Listed sizes depend on the artwork's orientation. 

The image is centred inside the sheet. Border width differs between the long and short edges because each work keeps its own proportions.

Made to order. 1 to 3 business days for production before your print ships. Sent by Canada Post with tracking, rolled in acid-free tissue inside a rigid kraft tube with end caps. Tracked shipping is $12 anywhere in Canada, or free on orders of $150 or more.

You have 30 days from delivery to return a print. If it arrives damaged or faulty, email us with photos and we will reprint and reship at no cost to you.
