           79.  (I) The most notable exponent of ‘ukiyo-e’ paintings,
               depicting ordinary life and typically printed on paper
               using a woodblock technique, is the Japanese artist
               Katsushika Hokusai.  (II) Originally from China,
               woodblock printing is an ancient method for printing
               text, images, or patterns that are widely employed
               throughout East Asia.  (III) Incorporating diverse
               topics such as kabuki players, sumo wrestlers, and
               iconic landscape paintings, the artist revolutionised
               the e-painting process and imparted his own
               interpretation by transferring the use of Western
               colour to his works.  (IV) With his massive series
               Thirty-Six  Views  of Mount  Fuji,  which  contains
               the classic print,  The Great Wave off Kanagawa,
               he reacted to a surge in domestic travel in
               Japan out of a personal interest in Mount Fuji.
               (V) His composition, The Great Wave, which blends
               the Western perspective with conventional Japanese
               prints, garnered him instant fame in Japan and, later,
               in Europe, where it inspired the Impressionists.
