Untitled is a 1751 ink by Komatsuken Shoshoken, a Baroque work, depicting Demon, held at Metropolitan Museum of Art.
This painting depicts a woman standing on a rock, dressed in a traditional Japanese kimono with a floral pattern. She has long black hair and is holding her hand to her head. In the foreground, a demon's head is visible in the water. The background of the painting is a muted brown color, with a subtle gradient effect that adds depth to the image. The overall atmosphere of the painting is one of serenity, with the woman appearing calm and composed despite the presence of the demon. To learn more about the artist who created this work, look up Komatsuken Shoshoken (Shakeiko).
Komatsuken Shoshoken made crisp, small woodblock prints in the 1820s Edo period, inking everyday scenes and figures onto paper no bigger than a postcard.
