If you go through the entire article, you'll find a link to a documentary that just came out about SJ's love of Japanese art. https://www3.nhk.or.jp/nhkworld/e

    It's funny to see this. In the past year or so I became very familiar with Hasui's works and now have more than a dozen prints of prints of his work on my walls. Several ones the same as what Jobs chose though perhaps that part is uninteresting since there's only about 100 to begin with I think. When I saw the scene of Bill's mother's house, two of the three she had on her wall were on my wall and visible as I watched this. Would love to get real prints one day but I'm happy with my replicas too. I suspect I'll never afford the real things. I've been somewhat tempted to learn a little about woodblock carving myself and perhaps make something more fun and modern with it.

  Thanks, I had seen this one too (had even tried sharing it with HN in a parallel submission). It is made with a lot of care and tactfulness, and is one of the best documentaries about Steve Jobs I know. Little warning: It totally brought me to tears. I knew he liked Japanese aesthetics, but wasn't aware it meant so much for him.
