Matsumoto Hoji's frog print is typical of Japanese artwork in 1814. It embodies the principles of wabi-sabi, a philosophy that values simplicity, imperfection, and impermanence, and draws on the folkloric symbolism of the frog in Japan. In Japanese mythology, the frog symbolizes good luck and prosperity. The legend of the "lucky frog" states that catching a frog and releasing it back into the wild will bring you good fortune.
