"Ejiri in Suruga Province" is a woodblock print by the Japanese artist Hokumyō, created between 1834 and 1837. This yatsugiriban (single-sheet woodblock print) depicts a landscape scene with figures walking through a grassy field, some carrying burdens on their backs. The print features a distinctive use of color and detail that showcases the artist's masterful skills in this medium. The print is currently housed in the Minneapolis Institute of Art and provides a glimpse into the daily life and landscapes of 19th-century Japan.
