"Ejiri in Suruga Province" (Sunshu Ejiri) is a celebrated woodblock print by the renowned Japanese ukiyo-e artist Katsushika Hokusai. This artwork is part of Hokusai's iconic series "Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji" (Fugaku Sanjūrokkei), which was created during the Edo period, around 1830-1832. The series is famous for its innovative compositions and its focus on Japan's most sacred mountain, Mount Fuji, depicted from various locations and in different seasons and weather conditions.

"Ejiri in Suruga Province" captures a dynamic and somewhat whimsical scene set in the town of Ejiri, located in what is now Shizuoka Prefecture. The print portrays a sudden gust of wind sweeping through the town, causing travelers to struggle against the force of nature. The wind lifts hats, papers, and other objects into the air, creating a sense of movement and chaos. In the background, Mount Fuji stands majestically, providing a serene contrast to the bustling activity in the foreground.

Hokusai's masterful use of perspective and his ability to convey motion and emotion are evident in this print. The composition is carefully balanced, with the diagonal lines of the wind-swept objects leading the viewer's eye towards Mount Fuji. The use of Prussian blue, a relatively new pigment at the time, adds depth and vibrancy to the scene.

"Ejiri in Suruga Province" is not only a testament to Hokusai's artistic skill but also a reflection of the Edo period's cultural and social milieu. The print captures the everyday life of ordinary people, highlighting their resilience and adaptability in the face of natural forces. Today, this work remains a significant example of Hokusai's genius and continues to be admired for its technical brilliance and evocative storytelling.
