Hokusai’s Great Wave
Hokusai was an artist who was born in Japan about 250 years ago.
His most famous work of art was ‘The Great Wave’ – a woodblock print. Have a look at it below:
Talk to someone at home about the picture – what colours has the artist used? How has he made the water look like it is moving?
Look even more carefully – what else can you spot in the ocean?
Do you see something in the background where the land would be?
This is Mount Fuji – the highest mountain in Japan. It is also a volcano.
Hokusai created a series of woodblock prints called ‘36 views of Mount Fuji’. They show landscapes and the everyday lives of people in Japan around 200 years ago. Have a look at the pictures – can you spot Mount Fuji in each one?
You might feel like creating your own piece of wave-inspired art, maybe using some of the tints and shades of blue you explored during Monday’s art session. Remember to share your work, we’d love to see it!
