The Great Wave off Kanagawa – Katsushika Hokusai Art Print

A curling blue wave rises over small boats in this Hokusai art print of The Great Wave off Kanagawa. White foam reaches across the sky, while Mount Fuji remains visible beyond the water. The contrast between the wave's movement and the distant mountain gives the composition its unmistakable shape.Also titled Under the Wave off Kanagawa, the design belongs to Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji, created around 1830–32.
