Part of Hokusai’s Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji, this print uses perspective to make the distant mountain appear tiny beneath the breaking wave. Its blues belong to a landscape palette that included indigo and imported Prussian blue.

Bring the Sea Home
The dark gray frame echoes the deep blue lines of the waves, the warm paper-colored border preserves the feel of printmaking paper, and the light gray-blue wall allows the sea and sky to extend naturally.
