Hokusai's genre scenes, bijin-ga (beautiful women), and miscellaneous subjects represent the breadth of his career across more than seven decades. The market for non-landscape Hokusai prints has strengthened as collectors seek beyond the most famous designs.
Enoshima, the small island connected to the Sagami coast by a sandy causeway, appears as a subject worthy of color-print treatment — a popular pilgrimage destination and scenic landmark that drew Edo residents as both devotees of its cave shrine and pleasure seekers. The print likely captures the island's dramatic rocky profile rising from the bay, a view recognizable to any Edoite who had made the half-day journey from the capital.
