제9막 by Katsushika Hokusai, 1806

Imagine a peaceful winter day suddenly turning into a samurai movie scene—that's what Hokusai captures in this 1806 illustration. While a serene, snow-covered garden with swimming koi sits quietly in the background, the foreground is pure chaos: women in elaborate kimonos brandish swords against a falling man inside a traditional house. This piece, likely depicting a scene from the famous *47 Ronin* story (*Chūshingura*), showcases Hokusai's dramatic storytelling skills decades before he painted his iconic *Great Wave*.
