This woodblock print, titled "Ocean Waves," is a famous work by the prolific Japanese artist Katsushika Hokusai. The print depicts a large wave breaking in the foreground, with several boats navigating the turbulent water. The print uses bold lines and vibrant colors to create a sense of movement and energy, which captures the power and majesty of the ocean. Hokusai is known for his depictions of nature, and "Ocean Waves" is a prime example of his ability to convey the beauty and power of the natural world. The work is housed in the Guimet Museum in Paris, France, and is considered one of the most iconic images in Japanese art.
