About this work

This print shows a woman in a long, flowing robe with floral patterns. Her hair is styled neatly under a black headband, and she wears a light pink undergarment. The background is mostly empty, with a few brushstrokes of color on the left side. Notice how the artist used simple lines and flat colors to create a calm, elegant look. The writing along the side is Japanese, but it’s not clear what it says. If you like this style, check out Torii Kiyomitsu.
