"Kakinomoto no Hitomaro from the Series 'Hyakunin Isshu Ubaga Etoki'" is a woodblock print by the renowned Japanese ukiyo-e artist Katsushika Hokusai. Created during the Edo period, this print is part of a larger series that illustrates the "Hyakunin Isshu," an anthology of one hundred poems by one hundred different poets compiled by Fujiwara no Teika during the Heian period. The "Ubaga Etoki" (literally "Old Woman Explaining One Hundred Poems") series is characterized by depictions of each poet with a commentary by an old woman, which adds a narrative and educational dimension to the artworks.

Kakinomoto no Hitomaro (c. 662–710) was a prominent Japanese poet of the Asuka period, considered one of the Thirty-Six Poetry Immortals. In Hokusai's print, Hitomaro is portrayed in a manner that reflects his esteemed status in Japanese literature. The artwork typically features the poet in a classical setting, often with symbolic elements that reference his poetry or his life.

Hokusai's "Hyakunin Isshu Ubaga Etoki" series is notable for its blend of visual art and poetry, as well as for its influence on later representations of classical Japanese poets. The series showcases Hokusai's skill in capturing the essence of each poet's work and his ability to integrate text and image in a harmonious composition. As with many of Hokusai's prints, this series is admired for its line work, use of color, and attention to detail.

The print of Kakinomoto no Hitomaro is a valuable piece of Hokusai's oeuvre and provides insight into the cultural reverence for classical poets in Japan. It is also an example of how ukiyo-e artists contributed to the popularization and understanding of literary works through visual interpretation.
