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. This iconic work is part of the series "Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji" (Fugaku sanjurokkei), which showcases the famous mountain from various perspectives and angles. The print depicts a towering wave, about to crash over three fishermen in their boats, as they bravely attempt to navigate the treacherous waters. The wave, with its dramatic crest and frothy white foam, is a testament to the power and unpredictability of the sea. The background is filled with smaller waves, adding to the sense of movement and chaos. The cartouche at the bottom right of the print bears the title "Kanagawa oki nami ura," which translates to "Under the Wave off Kanagawa," and the artist's name, "Hokusai." The print is also inscribed with the phrase "Saki no wa sorobeku," which means "The next wave is even bigger." This color woodblock print is an oban size, measuring approximately 26.3 x 38.1 cm. The use of bold lines, contrasting colors, and intricate details make this print a visual feast for the eyes. The print's vibrant colors, including shades of blue, pink, and rose, add to its overall beauty and appeal. The "Great Wave" is a symbol of Japanese art and culture, and its influence can be seen in various forms of art and media around the world. This masterpiece is a must-see for anyone interested in art, history, or Japanese culture. This print is part of the collection of the Art Institute of Chicago, one of the oldest and largest art museums in the United States. The museum, located in Chicago, Illinois, is dedicated to the preservation and presentation of art and artifacts from around the world, with a focus on American art and the arts of Asia.
