Examples of Hokusai's Drawing (Hokusai gashiki 北斎画式)
Hokusai's Examples of Hokusai's Drawing is a Japanese woodblock picture book issued in 1818 by Katsushika Hokusai, a Edo-period artist, as a manual of drawing for amateur students. The pictures show figures, landscapes and fantastic creatures rendered in clean black outline with little shading, presenting how a designer might build a scene from simple strokes, pine-lined hills, waterside houses, and spirited poses.
