Gigantic painting by Hokusai recreated on Nagoya temple grounds

Video footage taken on November 23,2017,Japan, at Honganji Nagoya Betsuin temple in Nagoya shows artists using broom-sized brushes to recreate an immense portrait of the Buddhist monk Daruma said to have been painted by Katsushika Hokusai (1760-1849) on the grounds 200 years ago. The original work that was painted on a sheet of washi paper the size of 120 tatami straw mats was lost in a fire during World War II. The new painting took several artists about two hours to complete and serves to mark the 300th year of the founding of the temple. Aichi Prefectural University of the Arts and Nagoya City Museum cooperated on the project.
