Untitled is a woodblock print created by Okumura Masanobu around 1745. It is a print on paper using ink and color.

Subject & Meaning

The print depicts a tall figure in a patterned robe, holding a flute and wearing sandals. The figure's hair is styled high and they gaze to the side. The image conveys a sense of elegance through the subject's pose and attire.
