Goal of the Activity

The aim of the event is for the participants to get to know the works of the artist - Katsushika Hokusai. The exhibition of Japanese woodblock prints from the collection of the National Museum in Krakow gave participants the opportunity to learn about Japanese culture, took them on a tour of Japanese landscapes of the Edo period (1603–1868), and show them the Tōkaidō, the most important trade route. 

Description

The event consisted of visiting a museum and seeing an exhibition of Katsushika Hokusai woodblock prints. 

At the exhibition, participants could see many works from the artist's most famous series, i.e. the series “Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji Fugaku sanju-rokkei”. The works of Katsushika Hokusai were seen at the exhibition held at the National Museum in Krakow thanks to the collection of Japanese woodcuts belonging to the museum.
