Senju in Musashi Province (Bushū Senju), from the series Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji (Fugaku sanjūrokkei)

Katsushika Hokusai

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

A colorful woodblock print depicts a scene with a horse and people. The horse is brown with a white mane and tail, and it wears a green saddle blanket and a red saddle. The horse faces right, with its head down. A person in a red outfit rides the horse. To the left, three people wear traditional clothing and conical straw hats. Two sit on a low platform, while one walks next to the horse. The background features green hills, trees, and a mountain in the distance. Four white pillars stand on the right side. The sky is blue at the top and fades to yellow near the horizon. A vertical rectangle of Japanese text appears on the left side.
