This cover, created by Katsushika Hokusai, showcases the artist's signature ukiyo-e style, a popular genre of Japanese art during the Edo period. This specific print depicts a simple yet elegant design of grass on a muted green background, with the title "Famous Views of the Eastern Capital" written in Japanese calligraphy on the left side. This cover, part of a larger collection, highlights Hokusai's mastery of both composition and detail, showcasing his talent for capturing the beauty of nature. It is now housed at the Rijksmuseum, offering viewers a glimpse into the world of Japanese woodblock prints.
