Woodblock printing is making prints by carving images in blocks of wood.

Hokusai's most famous work, and one of the best recognized works of Japanese art in the world is the one below. It depicts an enormous wave threatening boats off the coast of the prefecture of Kanagawa. While sometimes assumed to be a tsunami, the wave is, as the picture's title notes, more likely to be a large okinami ("wave of the open sea"). As in all the prints in the series, it depicts the area around Mount Fuji under particular conditions, and the mountain itself appears in the background.
