They partly anticipate modern Japanese visual culture, but with a meaning very different from that which we associate with the word “manga” today, now synonymous with comics.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Elena Salamon - Arte Moderna","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53705726361947,"sku":null,"price":70.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0405\/8110\/3766\/files\/HokusaiManga165_1400x1400_468a18ba-be3a-4edf-8c60-d310a212b2cb.jpg?v=1785682689","url":"https:\/\/www.elenasalamon.com\/en\/products\/hokusai-katsushika-manga-n-165-1834","provider":"Galleria Elena Salamon - Arte Moderna","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
