Untitled is a 1706 ink by Torii Kiyomasu I, a Baroque work, depicting actor, held at Metropolitan Museum of Art.
This image shows a woman in a kimono holding an open parasol. She is standing in front of a building with a grid-like design, possibly a window or door. The woman's kimono features a floral pattern, and she has a black obi tied around her waist. Her parasol is yellow with a pink edge and a black handle. The woman appears to be an actor, as indicated by her elaborate costume and hairstyle. The background of the image is a light beige color, which provides a subtle contrast to the woman's vibrant kimono. For more information on the artist behind this woodblock print, look up Torii Kiyomasu I.
