🌊The Great Wave off Kanagawa, aka The Great Wave or The Wave, is a woodblock print by the Japanese ukiyo-e artist Hokusai. He died at the age of 89, in 1849. Some years before his death he is reported to have stated:

“At the age of five years I had the habit of sketching things. At the age of fifty I had produced a large number of pictures, but for all that, none of them had any merit until the age of seventy. At seventy-three finally I learned something about the true nature of things, birds, animals, insects, fish, the grasses and the trees. So at the age of eighty years I will have made some progress, at ninety I will have penetrated the deepest significance of things, at a hundred I will make real wonders and at a hundred and ten, every point, every line, will have a life of its own.”
