"Great Wave" in Lego bricks


"Under the Wave Off Kanagawa" is one of Japanese artist Katsushika Hokusai's most famous images. 
One masterful woodcut print sold for $2.76 million this year and the work is found everywhere on posters, coffee mugs and calendars. 
A copy is part of a wonderful traveling show, which also includes other versions of the frothing, crashing wave. The most fun tribute is a giant recreation of the Wave done in Lego blocks.
