Ukiyo-e poster paying homage to the ephemerality of Japanese nature - Inume Pass by Katsushika Hokusai

Inume Pass in Kai Province (甲州犬目峠, Kōshū inume-tōge) presents a spectacular view where nature imposes all its majesty. Mount Fuji rises in the distance, enveloped in serenity, while in the foreground, a group of travelers crosses the steep Inume Pass, located in present-day Yamanashi Prefecture. The dynamic lines of the relief accentuate the exertion of the figures, contrasting with the tranquility of the sacred mountain.

This print is part of the famous series Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji , in which Hokusai explores diverse landscapes while highlighting Fuji's cultural and spiritual significance. Here, the bold perspective and meticulous detail convey both the power of nature and human resilience, hallmarks of Hokusai's artistic genius.

Whether in a living room, an office, or a personal gallery, this print will captivate the eye and enrich your decor with a touch of elegance and Japanese history.
