(*) “The Great Wave off Kanagawa” is the most famous work by Katsushika Hokusai, created between 1830 and 1832. This masterful print depicts a striking scene in which a monumental wave, with its foaming crests seemingly about to collide with three fishing boats, rises against Mount Fuji, which stands serenely on the horizon. Here, the Japanese artist unleashes his creative genius, using the famous Prussian blue, a pigment newly imported from Europe at that time, to create subtle gradations that give the composition its characteristic depth. Hokusai’s exceptional technical mastery is revealed in every detail: the bubbly foam of the wave, the dramatic movement of the water, the precision of the boats and their crews, and the iconic silhouette of Mount Fuji standing out against a sky of profound serenity.
