This image is a classic Japanese Ukiyo-e woodblock print created by Katsushika Hokusai. It depicts a coiled snake around a jar and a prayer tablet (ema) adorned with Japanese writing. The snake's body is illustrated with intricate patterns and detail, typical of Hokusai's work.

Additionally, there is a bowl that has a swastika symbol on it. It is important to note that in Eastern cultures, the swastika is an ancient symbol of good fortune and auspiciousness that predates its misappropriation by the Nazis. The aesthetic of the print, with the detailed and stylized depiction of the snake and objects, reflects the Edo period's artistic traditions.

This is a monochrome image of a traditional East Asian style artwork. The image depicts a large snake coiled atop what appears to be a stone plinth or altar. Its body encircles both the plinth and an angular object that resembles a stone tablet or stele. This object has text on its surface, but the script is indistinct and cannot be read from the image. The tablet also features a portrait. Additionally, there is a symbol resembling a swastika—which in East Asian cultures is associated with spirituality and good fortune—on the circular base where the snake coils.

At the top left corner of the image is a square seal with inscriptions, typical of East Asian paintings, denoting the artist or ownership, though the details are not clear in the image. On the right side there is a vertical column of script in East Asian characters running the length of the image, but the exact content is not discernible from the provided image.

The artwork has a strong sense of traditional symbolism and might be referencing a specific cultural story, myth, or religious concept. The text and symbols suggest that the image may carry significant meaning in its original context. The artwork is done in a detailed, delicate style that captures a sense of movement in the snake's body and a serene yet imposing presence.
