To convey how huge the wave is, Hokusai makes Mt. Fuji, Japan’s grandest mountain, appear as a small triangle within the cresting wave. I have been a fan of Hokusai for a long time.

So, you are not Eurocentric. Good to know that your frequent important contributions on these threads present the full story. Thank you, Alba.

Yes indeed.
One of the biggest errors of Cancel Culture is that they expect authors and artists from hundreds of years ago to conform to “modern” sensibilities.
I’m sure that, when “they” get a hold of “Moby Dick” they will demand it be cancelled due to its characterizations of Dagoo, Tashtego, Queequeg, and Pip.
Hoo boy...ESPECIALLY Pip.
Even Ahab felt sorry for Pip.

LOL. The name of the book is “The Prague Cemetery”.
The only think good about it is the satisfying splat when one tosses it across the room.

#21 has a certain Japanese feel to it. The edge of the wave also looks like a very roughly drawn Mandelbrot Set ...

Good morning!
#25 really captures the gravity of the situation.

I don’t know what the marine equivalent is to “the rubber meets the road,” but I agree that #25 captures it well, Allegra.

And what should we do if we are swallowed?
Come back tomorrow for the answer.

I'm not sure why, but #17 by Hans Moller makes me grin...even though it's not my usual preferred style-preference. It is imaginative & creative!
Today is my birthday! The big 7 oh! I remembered driving my youngest son to middle school & listening to this quirkily apropos song:

Enjoy!

Tomorrow, we’ll have LOTS of images showing the swallowed prophet.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JOHN! As a 73 myself, I fully appreciate your moment.
That song is unique!
