''Ferry on Sumida River'' is a woodblock print created by the renowned Japanese ukiyo-e artist Katsushika Hokusai. This work is part of Hokusai's extensive oeuvre, which includes thousands of prints, and is known for its vivid depiction of daily life and the natural environment during the Edo period in Japan. The Sumida River, a prominent feature in Edo (modern-day Tokyo), was a frequent subject in ukiyo-e art, serving as a source of inspiration for many artists of the time due to its bustling activity and scenic views.

In ''Ferry on Sumida River,'' Hokusai captures a moment of everyday travel, illustrating passengers aboard a ferry as they cross the river. The composition typically reflects Hokusai's keen eye for detail and his ability to convey movement and the rhythms of life. The print is characterized by its use of perspective, with the river stretching into the distance, and the inclusion of the far riverbanks, which provide a sense of scale and context for the scene.

As with many of Hokusai's prints, ''Ferry on Sumida River'' showcases the artist's skill in using color and line to create depth and texture. The artwork is a testament to the technical prowess of woodblock printing at the time and exemplifies the collaborative nature of the medium, involving the artist, carver, printer, and publisher in its creation.

The print is part of Hokusai's broader impact on Japanese art and culture, as well as his influence on later artists around the world, particularly in the context of Japonisme, which swept through Europe in the late 19th century. ''Ferry on Sumida River'' not only provides insight into the historical and cultural setting of Edo-period Japan but also stands as a piece of Hokusai's artistic legacy, reflecting his enduring contribution to the world of art.
