| Reverse description | The reverse features a faithful and finely engraved adaptation of Katsushika Hokusai's celebrated woodblock print 'The Great Wave off Kanagawa,' depicting a towering, foam-crested wave dominating the central field with Mount Fuji visible in the background between its cresting claws. To the left, a vertical cartouche containing Japanese characters identifying the work appears alongside a decorative geometric border referencing the woodblock's original framing elements. In the upper right quadrant, a circular medallion encloses a six-pointed star and bears the curved legend LA VAGUE D'HOKUSAI · CHEFS D'ŒUVRE DES MUSÉES, with the date 2020 inscribed vertically along the right margin. The entire composition is executed in proof finish with frosted relief against a mirror field, faithfully capturing the dynamic movement of Hokusai's original composition. |
