Packet 12: Tossup 3

In a painting titled for one of these things, a man in a green turban reaches over to grasp an upside-down man with no shirt. Six men cling to debris in the shape of a cross while the sun’s brightness forms an indistinct shape through clouds in that painting titled for a “ninth” one of these things by (15[1])Ivan Aivazovsky. Along with birds, thin white brushstrokes upon a dark textured region near the base represent these things in a painting of a (*) monk in a landscape by Caspar David Friedrich. An artist made extensive use of the newly-available pigment Prussian blue to depict one of these things in the most famous print of a series that also depicts its subject in red on a “clear morning.” For 10 points, Mount Fuji is seen beneath what kind of thing in a print by Hokusai of one of these things “off Kanagawa”? ■END■
