How much is Hokusai's Great Wave worth?
1 Answer

How much Hokusai's Great Wave is worth varies. Hokusai produced an estimated 8,000 copies of his now iconic woodblock print, The Great Wave off Kanagawa, and experts believe only 100 survive today. The condition of a surviving print will largely determine its value. In 2023, a Great Wave in excellent condition sold for $2.76 million at auction. If you're lucky enough to own an original, enlist the help of a certified appraiser or experienced art dealer to determine its value. Explore a variety of Katsushika Hokusai art on 1stDibs.
