About this piece
Hokusai's great wave as three hanging panels, the foam and the boats across the gaps
The wave, wide, in three pieces. This is Hokusai's Under the Wave off Kanagawa printed across three tall cloth panels that hang side by side on wooden rails: the great wave rises on the left panel and its claws of foam reach across the centre, the three boats of rowers ride the middle and the right, and Fuji sits small and white in the trough. The gaps between the panels fall in the water, and the wave crosses them.
It is the wave for a wide wall, and the format most people choose for it.
The name, Sanrenfuku, is the triptych, the three-panel picture, and this is the wave as one.
The image is printed across three tall cloth panels, each held top and bottom in a pair of wooden rails that clamp the cloth and carry a cord for hanging, so the three hang side by side with a narrow gap between them and the picture reads across the gaps. The colours are the print's own, and the cartouche and the signature sit in the corner of the left panel, as on the Edo sheet.
Hang the three on three nails at the same height, a finger's width apart, and step back; the gaps become part of the picture. It is the format for a wide wall, a sofa, a bed head or a hallway, and it is the one people photograph. The panels roll for moving and hang again in a minute.
The gaps are the detail: the picture is cut so the first gap falls through the wave's rising wall and the second through the trough, so each panel is a picture on its own and the three read as one. The foam's fingers reach across the first gap, which is the thing to look at.
Every print in the collection is photographed on the same wall at the same scale, so the pages compare.
Dust with a soft dry cloth; do not wet it. Keep it out of direct sun, which fades the blue over years. Roll it, do not fold it, if it comes down.
From across a room it is the wave in three panels. From close the foam shows its fingers across the gap, the rowers their backs, and the mountain its place in the trough. It is the piece for a sofa wall and a person who wants the wave large.
Three sizes, each for three panels: 30 by 60 cm, 40 by 85 cm and 50 by 102 cm per panel. The smallest set spans about a metre; the largest, a metre and a half. The image is the same in all three.
Questions about the japanese wall art
Are these original prints?
No. They are reproductions of Hokusai's Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji, woodblock prints from the 1830s that are long out of copyright, printed on canvas or cloth from the images. Every page says so.
Canvas or poster?
The single views are printed on a textured canvas stretched round a wooden frame, with the image wrapping the edges, so they hang without a frame or glass. The three triptychs are cloth panels held in wooden hanging rails with a cord.
What sizes are there?
Singles: 40 by 60, 50 by 75 or 60 by 90 cm. Triptychs: three panels each of 30 by 60, 40 by 85 or 50 by 102 cm. Every print is photographed at the same scale, so the pages compare.
Are they made in Japan?
No. They are a Japanese design, made in Asia. We say so on every page.
How do I hang them?
A single canvas hangs on one nail or picture hook. A triptych hangs on three nails at the same height, a finger's width apart; the gaps become part of the picture.
How do I look after them?
Dust with a soft dry cloth; do not wet. Keep out of direct sun, which fades the blue over years, and away from radiators. Roll a triptych panel if it comes down; never fold it.
What we sell, and what we don't
Japanese designs, made in Asia. Cotton, linen or polyester as stated on each piece, never silk. We say so on every page, because the alternative is selling you a word instead of a garment.
