"A Wild Sea at Choshi" is a woodblock print created by the Japanese artist Katsushika Hokusai in the early 1830s. It is part of his famous series "Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji" and depicts a tumultuous sea scene off the coast of Choshi, a port town located east of Tokyo.

In the print, waves crash against rocky cliffs and fishermen struggle to navigate their boats through the rough waters. Mount Fuji can be seen in the distance, partially obscured by clouds. Hokusai expertly captures the power and energy of the sea, using a range of blue hues to create a sense of depth and movement.

The print is notable for its dramatic composition and its depiction of the natural world in a way that emphasizes its power and unpredictability. Hokusai was one of the most important artists of the ukiyo-e tradition, which produced woodblock prints that depicted scenes from everyday life and landscapes in Japan. His work had a profound influence on Western art and is celebrated for its technical mastery and artistic innovation.
