The Great Wave Off Kanagawa Bicycle Headset Cap

The Great Wave off Kanagawa Bicycle Headset Cap is based on a woodblock print by the Japanese ukiyo-e artist Hokusai, probably made in late 1831 during the Edo period of Japanese history. The print depicts three boats moving through a storm-tossed sea, with a large wave forming a spiral in the centre and Mount Fuji visible in the background. Check out our entire Famous Art Series.
