This is the cover of "Honderd gezichten op de berg Fuji - deel twee," a woodblock print book series by the famous Japanese artist Katsushika Hokusai. The book's title is written in Japanese on the spine and includes the number 'two' to signify it's the second part of the series. Though the specific date of this artwork is unclear, it's believed to be from around 1875. The book is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. Hokusai, born in 1760, was known for his dynamic and innovative style, and the "One Hundred Views of Mount Fuji" series remains one of his most celebrated works.
