Hand-signed on the reverse and accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity (COA) in physical or digital format. "Face à la Vague" – Fine Art Giclée on Premium Cotton Canvas Face à la Vague takes place on the open sea off the coast of Japan, at the very instant a colossal wave rises over a small wooden boat. Its towering curl, crowned with claw-like foam, pays homage to Hokusai's Great Wave off Kanagawa, one of the most iconic images in the history of art, here reimagined in a dramatic and contemporary language. At the centre of the storm stands a lone samurai, feet planted firmly on the drenched deck, katana drawn and held low across his body. His armour of deep indigo lacquer is laced with gold silk cords and engraved with golden clouds, a crescent crest rising from his helmet, a black mask hiding his face. A dark silk scarf whips violently in the wind behind him, while spray and foam explode around his figure. Far in the distance, between the waves, the snow-capped silhouette of Mount Fuji stands silent and unmoved. Above, the storm clouds part for a moment, letting a single shaft of silver light fall upon the warrior and his blade, as seabirds struggle against the wind. The scene explores themes of courage, discipline and the stillness of the human spirit in the face of overwhelming forces, a warrior who does not flee the wave, but meets it.

Pimenta is a Portuguese artist whose commitment to creating visually striking artworks seeks to develop pieces capable of establishing visual presence and emotional connection with viewers and collectors. The creative process begins with an initial conceptual construction, where the central narrative and emotional direction of the composition are defined. Subsequently, the artistic vision is developed through Adobe tools, digital construction processes and the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI), adding depth, texture, light and structural refinement. His approach combines traditional artistic sensibilities with contemporary digital techniques, allowing the exploration of different visual languages and the continuous expansion of creative possibilities. Each artwork additionally receives a manual finishing intervention through an individual hand-applied artistic varnishing process, designed to reinforce luminosity, visual depth and material presence.
