An example of Japanese woodcut printing is the ukiyo-e style, which flourished from the 17th to the 19th centuries. One of the most famous ukiyo-e prints is "The Great Wave off Kanagawa" by Hokusai, which depicts a massive wave threatening boats near Mount Fuji. This art form involves intricate carving of woodblocks, allowing for vibrant colors and detailed imagery that captures scenes of everyday life, landscapes, and kabuki actors.
