360°BOOK Katsushika Hokusai Sparrow Dance / HOKUSAI SUZUME ODORI

About the productJapanese

A collaboration between Hokusai and 360°BOOK!
Hokusai Manga has come to life! Look at this dynamism!

The theme of this 360°BOOK is the sparrow dance depicted in Hokusai Manga. The "sparrow dance" is one of the traditional dances that literally imitates the movements of sparrows. It is said to have originated as an improvised dance performed by stonemasons from Senshu and Sakai at a banquet for the transfer ceremony of the deceased to Sendai Castle.
Katsushika Hokusai (1760-1849) featured this "Sparrow Dance" in the third volume of his illustration manual, Hokusai Manga, in which he depicts people in slave costumes and hats dancing to the sound of shamisen and song in such a way that they seem as if they could come to life at any moment.

360°BOOK is a groundbreaking book that expresses the three-dimensional world in a way that has never been seen before. When you open the book in a circular motion, a three-dimensional diorama appears in an instant. Each intricately designed page invites the viewer from a two-dimensional to a three-dimensional world. It is also perfect as an interior decoration or gift.
