A woodblock print by Tsukioka Yoshitoshi depicting a Kyoto geisha in repose during the Kansei era. The artwork showcases Yoshitoshi's skill in portraying human emotion and everyday life through the ukiyo-e style.
This woodblock print by Tsukioka Yoshitoshi (1839-1892) depicts a Kyoto geisha during the Kansei era (1789-1801). Yoshitoshi, a prominent figure in the ukiyo-e style, is recognised for his innovative approach to traditional themes, blending elements of realism with dramatic flair. His work often explored historical and contemporary subjects, capturing the atmosphere of his time. The print presents a geisha in a moment of repose. She reclines with her head resting on her hand, her eyes closed in a state of relaxation. Her elaborate hairstyle is adorned with ornamental combs, and she wears a blue kimono patterned with small white birds. The composition includes a teacup and scattered papers, adding to the intimate, domestic feel. The colour palette is dominated by blues and reds, typical of ukiyo-e prints, with careful attention paid to the patterns and textures of the fabrics. Yoshitoshi's skill in portraying human emotion and everyday life is apparent in this serene and detailed portrayal.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
