Experience the timeless horror of Hokusai's "The Laughing Hannya (Warai-hannya)" with a contemporary twist on this brushed aluminum print.

 

About the Artwork

"The Laughing Hannya" is a chilling woodblock print from Hokusai's renowned "One Hundred Ghost Stories" series, crafted circa 1830. This iconic piece captures the terrifying fusion of two fearsome yokai: the hannya (a jealous female demon) and the yamanba (a mountain witch). Hokusai's meticulous artistry brings to life a nightmarish creature devouring an infant, its face contorted in a maniacal grin. The master's innovative composition divides the scene with a crescent arc, separating the mortal realm from the supernatural. Through his careful portrayal, Hokusai invites us to confront the darker aspects of human nature and the ever-present threat of malevolent forces. The stark contrast between the mundane and the horrific enhances the print's unsettling quality, creating a visceral response in viewers. Whether you're a folklore enthusiast or an admirer of macabre art, "The Laughing Hannya" captures the essence of Japanese supernatural horror and the profound unease it can inspire.
