"Hongan-ji Temple at Asakusa in Edo" is a woodblock print by renowned Japanese artist Katsushika Hokusai, created between 1830 and 1833. The ukiyo-e (pictures of the floating world) print features a sweeping view of the temple in Tokyo, Japan. A kite soars high in the sky, with Mount Fuji in the background. The use of vibrant colors and bold lines characteristic of Hokusai's work creates a sense of movement and depth in the piece. This artwork showcases Hokusai's skill in capturing the beauty of Japanese landscapes.
