Courtesans and Attendants is a 1780 by Kitagawa Utamaro, a Romanticism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This print shows three women in traditional Japanese clothing. The woman in the center holds a fan with flowers on it, while the others wear patterned robes and tall hairstyles with combs. Their faces are calm, and the background is simple, focusing on the figures. The artist used bold lines and flat colors to create a clear, stylized look. The women’s robes have simple patterns, and the fan’s design stands out with its detailed flowers. If you like this style, check out Kitagawa Utamaro.
