"One Hundred Ghost Tales: Sarayashiki," created by Katsushika Hokusai in 1831-1832, is a compelling woodblock print that depicts the chilling legend of Okiku, a maid who was wrongfully accused of breaking a precious plate. Hokusai masterfully captures the eerie moment when Okiku’s spirit emerges from a well, her ghostly figure rendered in delicate, flowing lines that contrast with the dark, ominous background. The expression of sorrow and vengeance on her face, combined with the detailed, atmospheric setting, evokes a powerful sense of supernatural terror. This print is part of Hokusai's series exploring ghost stories and is a striking example of his ability to blend narrative depth with haunting visual imagery.
