Label TextHokusai's Manga were not Manga in the contemporary sense; they are not narratives told through drawings and text. Instead they are a series of books of sketches. They were so popular that over 60 years fourteen volumes were published. Some pages had several loosely-related designs on a single page; eldewhere, as here, the design spanned two facing pages.
