Read the excerpt from "Hokusai's The Great Wave."
What is the author's viewpoint in this excerpt?
So The Great Wave, far from being the quintessence of
Japan, is a hybrid work, a fusion of European materials and
conventions with a Japanese sensibility. No wonder this
image has been so loved in Europe: it is an exotic relative,
not a complete stranger
O The Great Wave was created using European
techniques
O The Great Wave was created using Japanese materials.
The Great Wave represents feelings of contentment in
Japanese culture
O The Great Wave represents feelings of ambivalence in
Japanese culture.
It also, I think, shows a peculiarly Japanese ambivalence.
As a viewer, you have no place to stand, no footing. You
too must be in a boat, under the Great Wave, and in
danger. The dangerous sea over which European things
and ideas travelled has, however been drawn with a
profound ambiguity
