"Ushibori in Hitachi Province" (Japanese: 常州牛堀, Jōshū Ushibori) is a celebrated woodblock print by the renowned Japanese ukiyo-e artist Katsushika Hokusai. This work is part of Hokusai's acclaimed series "Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji" (富嶽三十六景, Fugaku Sanjūrokkei), which was originally published between 1830 and 1832 during the Edo period. The series is widely regarded as Hokusai's magnum opus and a pinnacle of Japanese woodblock printing, capturing various perspectives of the iconic Mount Fuji.

"Ushibori in Hitachi Province" depicts a serene scene in the village of Ushibori, located in what was historically known as Hitachi Province, now part of modern-day Ibaraki Prefecture. The composition features a tranquil riverside setting with boats and fishermen, framed by the majestic presence of Mount Fuji in the background. Hokusai's masterful use of color, line, and perspective creates a harmonious balance between the natural landscape and human activity, reflecting the Edo period's appreciation for the beauty of everyday life and the natural world.

The print exemplifies Hokusai's innovative approach to ukiyo-e, incorporating Western techniques of perspective and shading while maintaining traditional Japanese aesthetics. The "Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji" series, including "Ushibori in Hitachi Province," played a significant role in popularizing the image of Mount Fuji as a symbol of national identity and artistic inspiration in Japan.

Hokusai's influence extends beyond Japan, impacting Western artists and contributing to the Japonisme movement in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. His works, including "Ushibori in Hitachi Province," continue to be celebrated for their artistic brilliance and cultural significance, offering a window into the rich visual and cultural heritage of Edo-period Japan.
