Kanagawa oki nami-ura (great wave off Kanagawa)

Limited Edition Erotic Shunga Print by Senju
 
This boldly sensual work comes from contemporary artist Senju’s acclaimed series, 36 Views of Mount Fuji – Shunga Reimagined, a provocative homage to Hokusai’s iconic landscape series.  Created nearly 200 years after the original Fugaku Sanjūrokkei, Senju’s version dares to blend traditional aesthetics with highly erotic, modern shunga themes — reviving Edo-era pleasure art through a fresh, visceral lens. 
Inspired by Japan’s long period of isolation (Sakoku), when culture blossomed within closed borders, Senju draws upon the spirit of ukiyo-e — the "floating world" of beauty, sensuality, and impermanence.  Just as Hokusai's Mt. Fuji served as a constant amidst fleeting moments, Senju uses erotic intimacy as a metaphor for timeless human connection and artistic continuity.
 
Kanagawa oki nami-ura (Great Wave off Kanagawa) offers a bold and erotic twist on Hokusai's iconic masterpiece.  In this reimagining, the towering wave crashes with intensity, while floating harigatas (Japanese dildos) drift across the sea.  In the sky, a striking, open-legged vagina shines like the sun, adding an explicit and sensual dimension to this legendary scene, blending traditional artistry with daring eroticism.
 
Size:  29.7 cm x 21 cm. 
 
Each print in this newly limited edition of 50 (per size) also shows enhanced depth of color, sharper linework, and greater contrast.  It is signed and numbered by the artist, carrying his hand-carved red hanko seal at bottom right — a personal emblem of authenticity.  Printed on 230gsm archival matte paper, this piece stands as both homage and innovation within Japan’s shunga legacy.
