Untitled is a 1793 ink by Torii Kiyonaga, a Romanticism work, depicting Drinking, held at Metropolitan Museum of Art.
This print shows three women in a small, cozy room. The woman on the right stands holding a fan, dressed in a long pink robe with white circles. The other two sit on a low bench, one holding a teacup and the other resting her hand on her chin. Outside the window, you can see trees and a distant landscape, while a sign with Japanese characters hangs above them. The artist used bold colors and simple shapes to create a lively scene. Notice how the women’s robes have detailed patterns, and the background is drawn with quick, sketchy lines. Want to learn more? Check out Torii Kiyonaga.
