Hokusai's Techniques: Creating a Supernatural Atmosphere

In "A Woman Ghost Appearing from a Well," Hokusai employs a masterful blend of traditional ukiyo-e techniques and his own unique vision.

The use of vibrant colors, including shades of blue, green, and red, adds to the print's haunting atmosphere.
