Why it belongs — editorialEditorial membership is based on the published BVU metadata for this entry: Art Visual Culture, Geometry Mathematics, Archaeology History; visual lens: Geometry, Contrast. Membership is a discovery grouping, not a new claim about shared cause or origin.
Source-backed entry materialThe Met identifies the print as Hokusai’s ca. 1830–32 woodblock print and notes its dramatic perspective, with Mount Fuji made small beneath the wave’s curling crest. The composition turns scale itself into a visual event.
