1888
From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
Dancer in a Fisherman's Costume is a 1888 by Kōno Bairei, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This painting shows a figure in a fisherman's costume, possibly dancing. The figure is dressed in a striped shirt and a long, flowing skirt, with a sash around their waist. They hold a long pole or stick in one hand. The background of the painting is a soft, muted color, which helps to focus attention on the figure. The overall effect is one of movement and energy, as if the figure is in motion. The painting is an example of Impressionism and Realism, and is held at The Cleveland Museum of Art.
Kōno Bairei (幸野 楳嶺; March 3, 1844 – February 20, 1895) was a Japanese painter, book illustrator, and art teacher.
