This delicate work illustrates a courtesan or geisha, recognizable by her sophisticated hairstyle adorned with pins, in a scene imbued with refinement and poetry. Created using the traditional woodblock printing technique, it is distinguished by the fineness of the lines, the softness of the colors, and the balance of the composition. Presented in an antique red and gold frame, this antique print bears the marks of time, attesting to its authenticity and history.
