The breathtaking composition of this woodblock print, said to have inspired Debussy’s La Mer (The Sea) and Rilke’s Der Berg (The Mountain), ensures its reputation as an icon of world art. Hokusai cleverly played with perspective to make Japan’s grandest mountain appear as a small triangular mound within the hollow of the cresting wave. The artist became famous for his landscapes created using a palette of indigo and imported Prussian blue. At Paint it easy we have decided to put a little twist to the original Hokusai print, and instead of the boat eaten by the waves, the artist features an emerging hand as it is launching a paper airplane (optional).
