Don’t think that wasn’t noticed.
I don’t think I saw the wave, but I swear I saw some of his prints in London, but I can’t remember which museum. Still, I have a book of his work! Great stuff.
I could have sworn I saw one at the Chicago Art Institute a few years back.
They do, but it’s currently not on display
The British Museum has an extensive collection which formed part of a major exhibition a few years ago.
Looks like Seattle Art Museum is hosting a retrospective. Better get my tickets.
"Has any Japanese woodblock print — or for that matter, any piece of Japanese art — endured as well across place and time as The Great Wave off Kanagawa"?
Has any piece of art been more parodied over time? Probably the Mona Lisa, but there can’t be many others.
