Katsushika Hokusai created the iconic on woodblock and ink on paper in 1832. This art print has vivid imagery showcasing strong white and blue vertical lines pouring down from the top of the waterfall, dividing and spreading wider at the bottom of the fall like the roots of a tree. Three travelers in front of the waterfall look up, mesmerized by the natural beauty and scale of the surging water, above them are two more travelers looking down at the scene from a higher point on the hill. Hokusai is famous for his well balanced composition and colour palette and an impressive example of this. Hokusai carefully plays with warm and cool colours, creating contrasts between water, rock and earth in this art print. makes for a captivating addition to an array of interior decor styles.
