EP.71. The Beginning Journey to the Floating World: The Story of Tokyo Sumida and Hokusai

Welcome back to Artbit , we're diving into the heart of Tokyo's Sumida Ward—a place that's not only home to the modern hustle and bustle but also to an iconic artist whose influence is felt not just here, but across the globe. We're talking about none other than Katsushika Hokusai, the master of ukiyo-e, whose work has shaped not only the landscape of Japanese art but also the world of manga and modern visual storytelling.
