Hokusai's The Great Wave off Kanagawa from his seminal work 36 Views of Mount Fuji is one of the most iconic representations of the Japanese style of art known as ukiyo-e. The scene is of a great wave (often mistaken for a tsunami) about to devour the men and boats, with the distant Mount Fuji minimized by the size of the wave. Image credit: Hokusai |
