About the piece

This evocative 1821 work by the legendary Japanese artist Katsushika Hokusai depicts a fisherman determinedly navigating a blizzard. Executed with masterful brushwork, the scene uses a muted palette and delicate white splatters to convey the cold, quiet intensity of an Edo-period winter storm.
