About the Artwork
"The Plate Mansion" is a haunting woodblock print from Hokusai's "One Hundred Ghost Stories" series, created circa 1830. This masterpiece brings to life the chilling tale of Okiku, a maid unjustly accused of breaking a valuable plate. Hokusai's exceptional artistry transforms Okiku's spirit into a serpentine creature composed of plates, embodying the concept of tsukumogami - everyday items gaining a spirit after a century. The print captures the eerie fusion of human and object, rendered with Hokusai's characteristic bold lines and vivid colors. As you gaze upon this work, you can almost hear the ghostly counting of plates, leading to the bone-chilling shriek that echoes through Japanese folklore. Hokusai's skillful portrayal invites viewers to contemplate the thin veil between the mundane and the supernatural, evoking a profound sense of unease and fascination with the unknown.
