36 Views of Mount Fuji

36 Views of Mount Fuji

36 Views of Mount Fuji can refer to two separate series of prints by two different Japanese ukiyo-e artists:

*The "36 Views of Mount Fuji" by Katsushika Hokusai (1760–1849), which was first produced between 1826 and 1833
*The "36 Views of Mount Fuji" by Andō Hiroshige (1797–1858), which was first published posthumously in 1859

In literature, "Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji: On Finding Myself in Japan" is also a memoir by Cathy N. Davidson that uses Hokusai's prints as a central motif.
