Skull and a Rib Cage - Katsushika Hokusai iPhone Case
Produced in USA, UK, EU & AUS • Shipped in 72 hours on average
About the Artwork
Gravity seems an afterthought here. The skull—a driftwood relic from some celestial shipwreck—spins midair, tethered by the ribs like an exhaled harp. Each vertebra clings to its former logic, but the architecture has collapsed into grace. Hokusai, long obsessed with the spiritual grammar of anatomy, renders this corpse not as death’s residue but a drifting ideograph.
Pale against a fog-swept ground, it flickers between diagram and ghost. There are no eyes, but the socket stares—reminiscent of Edo-period memento mori, yet stripped of all flourish. Just cartilage memory and bone calligraphy. The ribcage arcs like a broken fan. The skull grins—not in menace, but in unmoored relief. A death that forgot how to die.
Made for collectors of Japanese ukiyo-e ephemera, surreal skeletal prints, and anatomical studies. This museum-quality Hokusai reproduction invites reflection on impermanence, Edo-period symbolism, and the beauty of decay rendered with minimalist, otherworldly precision.
