Thank you Jack. You are right!
It is The great Wave off Kanagawa” by the japanese artist Katsushik Hokusai [1760-1849]. There is a series of 36 views of Mount Fuji, which was seen as the sourse of the secret of Immortality. Thank you Paulo Coelho, for the beautiful picture.
Love,

Internet is marvelous. I found this print is named; “The Great Wave at Kanagawa” and was created viewing from the Mount Fuji by Katsushika Hokusai (1760-1849), as Jack here suggests. The print illustrates the contrast between the turbulent wave and the eternal stable mountain Fuji. The three boats containing fishermen, points to everyday laborers.
Olá Paulo,
Uma das idéias que me ocorreu para fazer a foto da Exposição Virtual, foi de me locomover até um local relativamente próximo do monte Fuji, colocar o seu livro ao lado do monte Fuji(o livro ficaria semi aberto, invertido, como se fosse um segundo monte), e por fim, a minha foto tambem na forma de um “V” invertido, representando um terceiro monte.
Creio que ia ficar uma foto interessante. Não fiz a foto, pois é verão aqui no Japão, e o monte Fuji esta sem neve, com isto perdendo muito da sua beleza. Além disto como eu moro em Nagoya, teria que fazer uma viagem de + ou -s 200 kms para conseguir uma imagem perfeita. Com isto, ficando uma foto trabalhosa e cara. Mas continuo achando que ia ficar uma foto super legal!
Hi again. Today I discussed the picture with one of my colleague, an elder man who ones worked as a seaman at the big seas. At first the picture appealed us with the Fuji mountain standing strong with it´s beauty and the sea who was in movement in a “stormy” way. When we enlarged the picture, the man, the seaman discovered how the boats were sailing in a kind of strange way, he knows this stuff, which I didn´t see. Later he again returned to my computer and discovered how the boat was full with death. The picture then changed mood from beautiful to horrible…and it changed our mood for the picture. Why are you doing this to me, I don´t like this game
I m happy to see the wave today, and have no much time, but just passing to thank you for all your today’s words Paulo.
That’s true I’m awaiting for 7 years what’s occuring under my eyes, and I feel a bit nostalgic… curious.
Walking in Castle now will be a gift anyway.
A beautiful Japanese painting. The colours that make up the sky and ocean are very pleasant to look at, and give so much detail to the painting. Looking at the fishing boats I think how the huge ocean will take you where it wants to.
I love waves - just watching them is beautiful -riding them is even better .But this picture looks like it has a bit of a scary bit to it ,but all waves do I guess .I love jet skiing over waves so much fun :-) …Blessings Tania
My dear Wanbliska, what ‘marvellous’ thing is happening to you and you do not express it openly?
Seven years is quite a long time but, if this is what I think, it is worth to be ‘happy’. Enjoy it..
LOVE,
Thelma.

Ah, I love this piece – and even more the version where the white foam is replaced with rabbits.
Thank you Jack. You are right!

Yikes, my nightmare. You see, it has menacing little hands, out to get you.
