The Hour of a Dog by Kitagawa – Poster
Archival woodcut reproduction
Japanese classic as a high-quality art print
Ukiyo-e Classics for Your Wall – Fine Art Quality Woodcut Reproduction
The "The Hour of a Dog by Kitagawa" poster features a reproduction of the legendary woodcut "Inu no Koku" by Kitagawa Utamaro. An elegant woman in a momentary everyday scenario – celebrating the Ukiyo-e Bijinga tradition. The fine lines, subtle colors, and vertical composition convey the atmosphere of the Edo period and bring a characteristic Japanese art accent into your home.
Material & Craftsmanship
The print is produced on acid-free, archival-quality fine art paper or optionally on cotton canvas with a fine texture. This ensures a durable, detailed reproduction of the woodcut motif. Printed with lightfast, archival pigment inks – so contours, patterns, and the subtle color gradations of the Ukiyo-e style remain clear and balanced long-term.
Sizes & Variants
You can choose from four formats: A3 (29.7 × 42 cm), A2 (42 × 59.4 cm), A1 (59.4 × 84 cm) or A0 (84 × 118.8 cm). All variants are delivered without a frame or hanging device – perfect for your individual presentation.
Who is this for?
This print will appeal to you if you love Japanese Ukiyo-e art on your wall – not as a poster, but as a standalone work of art. You appreciate historical woodcut motifs that simultaneously appear timeless. Whether as a gallery wall with other prints, in a studio, practice, or office – the "Hour of a Dog" adds a cultured, contemplatively elegant accent.
Youro found this print for you because it bridges the gap between historical Japanese art tradition and modern fine art print quality.
