"Yurei" is a woodblock print by the celebrated Japanese artist Katsushika Hokusai. This haunting image depicts a female ghost, or "yurei," with flowing, ethereal hair and a sorrowful expression. Hokusai's signature style, characterized by bold lines and dramatic compositions, is evident in this powerful portrayal of a spectral being. This print offers a glimpse into Japanese folklore and the artistic mastery of Hokusai, who was active during the Edo period (1603-1868).
