"The Great Wave off Kanagawa" is a woodblock print by the Japanese artist Katsushika Hokusai, created in the early 19th century. It is part of a series of prints called "Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji," and is one of the most famous works of Japanese art.

The print depicts a large wave towering over three fishing boats, with Mount Fuji visible in the background. The wave is depicted in a stylized manner, with white foam and spray set against a deep blue background. The boats and their occupants are rendered in a more realistic style, with intricate details such as the patterns on their clothing and the nets they are using to fish.

"The Great Wave off Kanagawa" is considered a masterpiece of Japanese art and has had a significant impact on Western art as well. Its striking composition and bold use of color have influenced numerous artists, including Vincent van Gogh and Claude Monet. The print has also become a widely recognized symbol of Japanese culture, and is often used as an emblem of Japan itself.
