This image was inspired by a painting from 1831. Its an iconic image called 'The Great Wave Off Kanagawa' The Artist was someone called 'Hokusai' My apologies if I have got any of these details wrong. I have posted two versions & they are not intended as copies of Hokusai's work. They are simply inspired by his fine painting & as such he deserves credit for his influence.
