Untitled is a 1834 ink by Hokkyō Kōitsu, a Romanticism work, depicting Horse, held at Metropolitan Museum of Art.
This print shows a woman in bright blue and red robes holding a fan, standing beside a large, calm horse. Behind her, a man in a turban and patterned clothes leans over the horse, which carries a yellow-and-black box on its back. The background is mostly empty, with just a hint of green and some Japanese text around the edges. The horse’s calm demeanor and the woman’s poised stance stand out. The yellow box it carries might hold something important, but the scene feels more about the quiet moment than the cargo. If you like this style, check out Hokkyō Kōitsu.
