The first US museum exhibition of Japanese art with a published catalogue was the MFA’s “Hokusai and His School,” on view between 1892 and ’93. More than 130 years later, the Museum continues to expand and study its large collection of paintings, drawings, woodblock prints, and printed books by this important group of artists. Take an inside look at a sample of the cutting-edge research on Hokusai and his students, including his talented daughter Ōi, and see works of art that have never before been published or exhibited.
