Street scenes newly pubished 1825

This woodblock print, created in 1825 by renowned Japanese artist Katsushika Hokusai, depicts a bustling street scene. The print showcases Hokusai's characteristic use of vibrant colors and dynamic lines to capture the energy of everyday life in Edo-era Japan. The central figure, a man blowing bubbles, is surrounded by a lively cast of characters, including a man on stilts, a woman carrying a large drum, and a man with two sake bottles. "Street scenes newly published" exemplifies Hokusai's mastery of the ukiyo-e genre, offering a glimpse into the social and cultural life of his time. This artwork is currently on display at the Guimet Museum in Paris, France.
