"Hoge golf" (High Wave) is a woodcut print by the Japanese artist Kamisaka Sekka, created around 1909. This artwork is a minimalist depiction of a large wave crashing against a blue background, with a subtle moon subtly visible behind the wave. Sekka was a prominent artist of the Shin-hanga movement, known for his striking prints which often depicted natural subjects in a simplified, modern style. This work exemplifies Sekka's approach to nature, emphasizing the beauty and power of a single wave through its bold design and limited color palette.
