in 1953 and is an oil on canvas painting. Easter Sunrise depicts a mountain side and shining from the corner of the mountain is a brilliant white cross. As far as the technical excellence of this painting‚ the colors are varying degrees of browns‚ gold and white. Georgia O’Keeffe uses form really well.

Katsushika Hokusai’s The Great Wave off Kanagawa is one of the most iconic works in the history of Japanese art. Presumably created in Japan around 1829-1832‚ the woodblock print was part of the Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji series which featured ravishing sceneries of Mount Fuji. Being the first print in the series‚ The Great Wave off Kanagawa was a phenomenal success. Hence‚ Hokusai added ten more designs into the collection.
