[edit] Print sizes

What are the sizes of the prints? Are they all formated to fit in a portfolio? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Nicky Beep (talk • contribs) 00:14, 23 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Too many?

Why is the work called 36 views if actually there are 46 views? --Nikola 02:58, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

Money. For example, Hiroshige's 100 Famous Views of Edo was successful enough that it actually went to 120 or something like that, despite Hiroshige's death! It's just like Hollywood and sequels today. --Gwern (contribs) 03:25 25 November 2006 (GMT)

[edit] John Mayer

Wasn't this parodied on one of John Mayer's live albums? (As Is)

I'm sure it's been copied, parodied, used as inspiration, and otherwise made reference to in a gazillion different ways. Doesn't make a trivia section necessary. LordAmeth 14:46, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

If an individual image has been extensively copied, parodied, and so on, then a "Cultural references" section might be useful as a way of documenting and illustrating just how influential the image has been, after sufficient material has been collected ... but if so, that section would need to be added (with suitable restraint) to the wikipedia page for that individual image The_Great_Wave_off_Kanagawa (or, in extreme cases, as a separate offshoot wikipage), not to the "36 views ..." page. IMO. PS: I've just looked up the Mayer "cascading bunnies" album art version. Funny! Thanks. ErkDemon (talk) 17:06, 14 March 2009 (UTC)

Fyi: The art from As/Is is by Kozyndan, and was originally created as a cover for the magazine Giant Robot (see issue). The image is called "Uprisings", and you can buy a print for $15 (which I did, and adore). :) -- Quiddity (talk) 17:45, 14 March 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Originals and order

1. If the work was conceived as a collection of 36 pieces, which of the pieces are the original 36?
2. The order of the lists for the English and the Japanese versions of this article do not match. Which is the correct/original order?

[edit] Table

I made this table as like as one in the russian Wikipedia. And now we need a good introduction. Gruznov Mikhail (talk) 23:30, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

Marvelous work. Much thanks :) -- Quiddity (talk) 19:47, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Nakahara in the Sagami province.jpg

In 36 Views of Mount Fuji (Hokusai)#Additional 10, Image #3 needs to be checked. The description in the text does not match the file name, but possibly the image is right. See also Commons:Image talk:Nakahara in the Sagami province.jpg. Fg2 (talk) 08:31, 4 October 2008 (UTC)
