EDITORS COMMENTS
Under the Wave off Kanagawa," also known as "The Great Wave," is a renowned masterpiece by the Japanese artist Hokusai, created between 1830 and 1833. Part of the series "Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji" (Fugaku sanjurokkei), this iconic color woodblock print showcases the artist's extraordinary ability to capture the dynamic interplay between nature and humanity. The image depicts a towering wave, its crest breaking violently, threatening to engulf three fishermen in their small boat. The wave's spray and foam are depicted in vivid blue and white, adding to the dramatic effect. In the background, Mount Fuji, a symbol of Japan, stands calmly, contrasting the turmoil of the sea. The print is a testament to Hokusai's skillful use of color and composition. The cartouche at the bottom left bears the artist's name, "Hokusai," and the title "Saki no Wa (Under the Wave)." The print's oban size and intricate details exemplify the high standards of the Edo period's artistic school. The scene is not just a depiction of the natural world but also a reflection of the precarious existence of the fisherfolk and their daily struggle against the elements. The fishermen's determined expressions and their focus on rowing against the wave convey a sense of resilience and survival. This print, with its iconic image of the great wave, has become a symbol of Japanese art and heritage. It continues to inspire artists and art lovers around the world and is a reminder of the rich artistic legacy of Japan during the 19th century.
