About This Design

Hokusai: The great wave of Kanagawa Coffee Mug

Hokusai: The great wave of Kanagawa Coffee Mug

The Great Wave of Kanagawa (神奈川沖浪裏, Kanagawa Oki Nami Ura?, lit. "Under a 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. While sometimes assumed to be a tsunami, the wave is more likely to be a large okinami. (Japanese "ocean wave".) Like the other prints in the series, it depicts the area around Mount Fuji under particular conditions. The waves appear to be flow in streaks of light and dark blue and also appear to be very threatening yet beautiful. There are three boats being bashed around by the waves. These three boats contain groups of depressed people in them. This is great for anyone who is interested in the works of Hokusai.

It is a lovely mug. The actual mug is shiny and smooth. Very nice quality. It was everything I expected. Zazzle has so many nice mid century modern designs to choose from. All so pretty! The design was very clear and looked expensive.
