Description

Also referred to as 'The Great Wave off Kanagawa', ‘The Great Wave’ is an iconic woodblock print by the Japanese ukiyo-e artist, Katsushika Hokusai. The awe-inspiring composition of this piece is generally accepted as an icon of world art. Hokusai cleverly played with perspective to make Japan’s greatest mountain, Mount Fuji, appear as a small triangular mound in the hollow of the crashing wave.

Beautiful any way you want them, either select from our recommended ‘Ready to Buy’ options, or customise your print and choose your exact print size. You can also crop the image, if you desire.

Each print retains the quality, quirks and age-worn beauty of the original painting, etching, print, sketch or drawing in a range of high quality finishes. Our art prints are available unframed or framed. See below for more details.
