Abstract Created when he was 70 years old, Katsushika Hokusai's woodblock painting depicts human vulnerability in the face of nature, with three fragile cargo boats about to be swamped by a giant wave. The program looks at the profound influence The Great Wave had on Western art, and the many instances in which it was reproduced, borrowed and adapted around the world.
