Its identity as an artwork became even more uncertain when a lawsuit called its copyright into question, and in so doing questioned whether it was even a Picasso at all.

  • Debussy's Wave: Debussy, Hokusai and La Mer - Dr Mary Breatnach

The image refers unmistakeably to Hokusai's 'The Wave' and constitutes an act of homage paid by a composer to an artist whose work he revered. Rather than using Hokusai's work to illustrate his own, Debussy chose to present an interpretation that, in significant ways, enabled him to reach over and transcend traditional boundaries. Dr Breatnach suggests that his purpose in using this image was, at l...
