Description
The current breaks against the rocks in the foreground with such violence that one recalls "Great Wave off the Coast of Kanagawa" (Hokusai's acknowledged masterpiece). Farther from the bank, the flow is smoother, but long, slightly curved lines give the impression of great speed. The mountains in this area press in so close to the river's banks that Fuji is not usually visible, but Hokusai has outlined its peak as a matter of course.
With regard to the composition, it should be noted that the contour created by the rock, the fisherman, and the lines of the net echo the shape of Mt. Fuji, while the curve of the rock is repeated in the wave beneath it.
