AI overview
Katsushika Hokusai was a Japanese artist from the Edo period who created woodblock prints and paintings, most famously including "The Great Wave off Kanagawa" from his series Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji. He significantly expanded ukiyo-e art beyond its traditional focus on courtesans and actors to include landscapes, plants, and animals, and his work later influenced major European artists like Van Gogh and Monet during the 19th-century Japonisme movement.
