Nice reproduction of 'Fuji above the lightning' from Hokusai's '36 Views of Fuji' first published c.1832. It is well illustrated in many standard books about Hokusai. I used Richard Lane's 'Hokusai - Life and Work' to compare. There are many block differences, most noticeably the pattern of clouds in the sky. Yours is a later reprint from recut blocks and of decorative value.
