The Private Life of a Masterpiece Masterpieces 1800-1850 Katsushika Hokusai: The Great Wave 2003
6.3/10 by 3 users
Perhaps the most celebrated of all Japanese pictures, the Great Wave's portrayal of a huge wave about to overwhelm three boats was only produced by Hokusai when he was old and broke and needed money badly. A print that cost little more than bowl of noodles to those who first bought it, the image has been hugely influential on later art.
