“The Great Wave makes a big splash in the world of LEGO Art, recreating the Japanese artist’s iconic woodblock print with smart color choices and a ground-breaking building experience. The first print in Hokusai’s Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji series, and easily his most... More recognizable work, The Great Wave off Kanagawa (to give it its full title – why the LEGO set shortens it is beyond us) depicts three boats sailing through a stormy sea, while Fuji rests calmly in the background.”
