The great wave of Kanagawa, Hokusai (104x104cm)

The Furoshiki is a square of fabric, which can be used to wrap various things, for transport, or as a gift.
During the Muromachi era, furoshiki was originally used to pack clothes in public baths (Onsen) and easily recognize them.
Today it can be used to make a chic gift wrap, an improvised picnic basket or a decorative fashion accessory, or, returning to its origin, use it to pack its practical belongings.

On this Furoshiki, is reproduced one of the most famous prints by Hokusai Katsushika, "Kanagawa-oki nami-ura" (神奈川沖浪裏) or "The great wave of Kanagawa" which is part of a series of prints entitled "Thirty-six views of Mount Fuji".
