The story behind The Great Wave off Kanagawa

Created around 1831 for the series Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji, Hokusai's wave curls above three boats while distant Fuji remains still. Its intense Prussian blue helped turn a small woodblock print into one of the world's most recognizable images.

The Great Wave off Kanagawa as a stained-glass puzzle

Mosaic Atelier turns Katsushika Hokusai's c. 1831 masterpiece into a set of stained-glass logic puzzles. You place coloured glass fragments into valid regions using pure deduction — the same satisfying reasoning as a nonogram or a logic grid — and as each puzzle resolves, another pane of the painting lights up. Finish the world and the whole artwork glows back to life.
