北斎 Great Wave Off Kanagawa Hokusai Fine Art Poster
The Great Wave off Kanagawa is a famous woodblock print by the Japanese artist Hokusai. It was published in 1832 (Edo Period) as the first in Hokusai's series 36 Views of Mount Fuji and is his most famous work. It depicts an enormous wave threatening boats near the Japanese prefecture of Kanagawa. As in all the other prints in the series, Mount Fuji can be seen in the background. The wave is probably not intended to be a tsunami, but a normal ocean wave created by the wind. Like the other prints in the series, it shows the area around Mount Fuji under particular conditions.
Vintage nature Japanese ukiyo-e fine art.

when I opened my box I was so happy with my purchase-- the quality of the matte was great. The bright colors of the waves were beautiful. I gave this as a gift and it surprised my brother, he got a frame, hung it up and has changed the decor of his room. We both recommend this poster and will continue to shop with you. the coloring was excellent -- the matte was beautiful -- the print is clear -- it's just so beautiful

Nice thick paper- well printed. Colors are clear and not muddy. Printing is sharp. I'm pleased.

I like the design features on the website. They enable the fitting of a good quality Print to an existing frame.
This Print was of excellent quality. I would buy again.
One small gripe is that the image was not centred horizontally (about 3mm out) so needed trimming. No great hardship and may have been my fault in the setting-up.
Next time, I would choose to set the text below the picture to a smaller font.
Overall - Thank You! Looks good in its frame - Just as expected. I had a very expensive Gallery print of this before. It got damaged - hence the replacement. It compares very well.
