The Great Wave of Kanagawa by Hokusai
"The Great Wave of Kanagawa"

An image I've always wanted to create onto canvas, and finally managed to find the time to complete, is "The Great Wave of Kanangawa" by the Japanese artist Hokusai. Originally created as a woodblock print sometime between 1830 & 1833, part of his series Thirty six views of Mount Fuji, it's one of the most recognised images in Japanese art across the world. An image I've always admired.

At a recent auction at Bonhams an original print sold for £75,650... I don't expect quite that much but I wouldn't refuse the offer either :0)

Acrylic on Canvas - size 52x36 inches

£3750 - includes delivery
