Nel frattempo, nella vita di Katsushika Hokusai

Tutta la vita
  1. 1798

    Becomes an independent artist

    Hokusai passed his name on to a pupil and, for the first time, set out as an independent artist tied to no school, taking the name Hokusai Tomisa.

  2. 1800

    The name Katsushika Hokusai and his first landscape albums

    Hokusai adopted the name by which the world knows him: Katsushika, after the district of Edo where he was born, and Hokusai, “north studio”, in honour of the North Star, symbol of a deity of his Nichiren Buddhist faith. That year he published Famous Sights of the Eastern Capital and Eight Views of Edo, and began to take pupils of his own — some fifty over his lifetime.

  3. c. 1800

    Daughter born: Katsushika Ōi
