Immerse yourself in the supernatural world of Hokusai's "The Ghost of Kohada Koheiji (Kohada Koheiji)" with this beautifully textured canvas print.

About the Artwork

"The Ghost of Kohada Koheiji" is a spine-chilling woodblock print from Hokusai's "One Hundred Ghost Stories" series, crafted circa 1830. This piece illustrates the tale of Kohada Koheiji, a kabuki actor murdered by his unfaithful wife and her lover. Hokusai's exceptional technique brings to life Koheiji's skeletal apparition, surrounded by ghostly flames, peering through a mosquito net at the guilty couple. The artist's use of the mosquito net as a barrier between the living and the dead creates a palpable sense of impending doom. The stark contrast between Koheiji's bony figure and the implied presence of the living couple heightens the horror of the scene. As you study this print, you'll find yourself drawn into a world where betrayal leads to relentless supernatural retribution. Hokusai's skillful portrayal invites viewers to contemplate the consequences of deceit and the enduring nature of vengeance, evoking a profound sense of unease and moral reckoning.
