I love Hokusai, the Japanese woodblock artist who created the set: “Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji” and of that set I particularly I love “The Wave” (pictured below). So I was naturally drawn to Tsunami Books and their homage to Hokusi’s great work.
Besides having a great mural Tsunami Books is a wonderful bookstore with a fine collection of books, a great vibe and a stage where they host weekly live music and poetry readings.
It’s such a long mural that I’m showing it in two photographs in order to reasonably show more of its detail.
There is also a very nice painting on one of Tsunami ‘s unused front doors. Tsunami is located at 2585 Willamette Street.
Hey very nice mixing of world cultures. Thanks for the post. Dan Hitchcock
