    After seeing fellow #YuzuruHanyu fans make the comparison between this photograph by @ninagawamika for @AERAnetjp and Hokusai’s famous “Great Wave,” curator Sarah Thompson knew that she wanted to include it in her exhibition “Hokusai: Inspiration and Influence.” #羽生結弦

    The superstar figure skater is renowned for combining power and beauty in his skating—qualities that Sarah also sees in works by #Hokusai. The angle and pose of this shot resemble the composition of the iconic wave, which may or may not be coincidental.

    "I like photographs that can capture the thrill of his skating in a still image, as I think this one does,” she says. “I was lucky that on this occasion, my professional life and my private interests happened to come together."
