"Part 2- At Sōjō-ga-tani on Kurama Mountain" is a woodblock print from the "One Hundred Famous Views of Edo" series by Utagawa Hiroshige, dating to 1832–1834. The work, which depicts a group of travelers navigating a mountain path, showcases Hiroshige's mastery of landscape composition and atmospheric effects. The print's perspective, which emphasizes the towering trees and dramatic rock formations, creates a sense of depth and awe. This work, like many in the series, was likely intended to inspire a sense of tranquility and appreciation for the natural world in viewers.
