Henri Gustave Jossot - The Wave - 1894 - Caricatures Hokusai's "Great Wave" as a dandified artist who headed out to sketch a seascape is upended.
This lithograph offers a taste of the caricatures Henri Jossot drew by the hundreds. Here he ridiculed the Japonisme craze that swept through the Parisian art world: Hokusai's "Great Wave" upends a dandified artist who headed out to sketch a seascape, easel and canvas in hand. In direct parody of Japanese woodcuts, Jossot cut off the figure at the edge of the picture plane - Minneapolis Institute of Art
