■SUN SURF × Katsushika Hokusai Short Sleeve Rayon Hawaiian Shirt Turtle Japanese Design Special Edition SS39461
![]() <Model: Height 175cm Weight 62kg Wearing size L> Hokusai's bird-and-flower paintings series featuring auspicious themes. Besides this "Turtle," there are also "Hawk with Cherry Blossoms," "Carp Ascending a Waterfall," "Cranes in Snowy Pines," and "Grazing Horses." This work depicts the flow of water swaying with a blue gradation diagonally crossing the screen, with a composition that looks down on three turtles drifting in the water. The lowest turtle, a "Minogame" (a turtle with moss on its shell), is a symbol of longevity, and alongside the parent turtle, baby and grandchild turtles are also depicted, representing family prosperity. This bird-and-flower painting series was produced as an alternative to auspicious hanging scrolls, in a long, narrow format called chodaiban. When you see the actual piece, Hokusai used indigo pigment for the blue parts of the water surface. Following this, a distinctive feature of this shirt is that it is printed using indigo pigment. Also, at that time, silver was used for the turtle's head, but as it was not suitable for a shirt, a silver pigment close to the actual color was used. <National Treasure of Japan> Focusing on Edo period painters, when Japanese culture and art expanded further, this series recreates the masterpieces of these great artists on the canvas of an aloha shirt, reviving the passion embedded in Japan's world-renowned designs. This series, which began with collaborations with Kawanabe Kyosai's works, is now welcoming new artists and moving into its next phase. Artwork Name: Turtle (Kame) Artist: Katsushika Hokusai / Circa 1834 / Large-format Nishiki-e Material: Rayon Fujiette Print: Overprint Buttons: Mother-of-pearl buttons ●Overprint A technique of layering stronger colors over a light base color. It allows for more colors than discharge printing, and because the colors meet at the boundaries, the gradation looks beautiful. It is suitable for realistic patterns like traditional Japanese designs. ●Rayon Fujiette A plain weave fabric made of filament rayon for the warp and spun rayon for the weft. It combines the suppleness similar to Fuji silk with the unique texture of rayon. The fuzziness on the surface is also a characteristic of Fujiette.
