Our canvas tote features a detail from Katsushika Hokusai’s (Japanese, 1760–1849) enduring masterpiece,
Under the Wave off Kanagawa
, also known as
The Great Wave
(ca. 1830–32). This timeless woodblock print captures a formidable, foaming breaker towering over tiny boats filled with fishermen bracing for impact. Hokusai’s clever use of perspective makes even the imposing Mount Fuji appear comparatively small. The esteemed ukiyo-e painter and printmaker was especially revered for his meditative landscapes, in which he employed a rich color palette including exotic Prussian blue.
