Hokusai's landscape prints beyond the Thirty-six Views span a remarkable range of viewpoints and weather conditions. Non-series landscape prints by Hokusai regularly appear in specialist Japanese print sales worldwide.
Mount Fuji observed from the neighborhood of Shimo Meguro, one of the twenty-five supplementary prints added to the original thirty-six to complete the extended Fugaku sanjurokkei series. The elevated vantage and open suburban landscape allow the mountain to dominate the composition, its familiar silhouette a constant presence across the varied geographies of Hokusai's great series.
