The 1.25" thick side edges can be colored to your preferred choice, in this case;  dark blue, white, light gray, gray, dark gray, black, *side print or *mirror wrap, which all works perfectly fine for this artwork. 

 *Mirror wrap, is the process of reflecting the front perimeter of the artwork printed on to the canvas's side edges.  These color combinations and prints are adjusted to each specific artwork, achieving a perfect match.  The goal here is to preserve and keep the totality of the image on the front side of the canvas.

*Side print, is the printing of the image's perimeter extended onto the side of a stretch canvas, which seems to work just fine with this artwork (without hiding too much from the from the front surface's printing).

ABOUT THE ARTIST AND THE ARTWORK:

These paintings depict towering waves, ready to crash downwards.  Both impressionistic and sublime, and drawn with both vigour and detail, these are one of the most iconic paintings in the world. The Feminine Wave and the Masculine Wave are another of Hokusai’s water themed works, and it was painted on an unknown date, estimated to be in the 1830s.  Nevertheless, there are clear parallels to be drawn between this work and the iconic Woodblock print ink painting, The Great Wave.

The Feminine Wave and Masuline Wave depicts towering, curling waves. However, unlike The Great Wave, these paintings depicts a curlier wave that could even be described as frilly. In addition, it is bordered by a floral design. Are these elements that Hokusai considered to be specifically male or female?  Hokusai’s wave paintings are part of a wider series of works depicting natural events: 36 Views From Mount Fuji. Hokusai was clearly fascinated by the shifting form of water – several of his other works of art depict water, including Night Fishing,The Big Wave and more... 

His wave paintings manage to capture a dynamic wave in an almost photographic form so that we see every tiny curl. The overall impression is one of an instant captured for all time.The titles of both the Feminine Wave and the Masculine Wave raises many more questions than it answers. This is an artwork of mysterious beauty.

These works are striking in their energies and strength.  The artist fixes through painting a fleeting moment, a liquid movement impossible to stop. The flows mix but also oppose each other, by different trajectories and by the contrasts of their respective colors. Evoking combat and vigor, these waves with a warlike temperament embodies the typically masculine and feminine spiritual essences, as it was accepted in the Edo period. The work contrasts between Masculine and Feminine waves, by the artist.
