One of the most iconic images in all of art, The Great Wave off Kanagawa captures the breathtaking power of nature with timeless grace. Created by Katsushika Hokusai around 1831 as part of his Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji series, the composition contrasts the towering, foam-tipped wave with the serene presence of Mount Fuji in the distance - a perfect balance between chaos and calm.
Every detail of Hokusai’s design reflects the mastery of Edo-period printmaking: the delicate lines of the sea, the rhythmic curves of the boats, and the expressive use of Prussian blue, a pigment newly introduced to Japan at the time. The result is a work that feels as alive today as it did nearly two centuries ago - a symbol of resilience, beauty, and the sublime force of the natural world.
Ideal for art collectors and lovers of Japanese aesthetics, this print brings a sense of movement and majesty to any space.
