Description

A nude woman with elaborately dressed black hair sits with her back to the viewer, torso turned so her profile is visible as she holds a blue-patterned cloth to her neck. She is seated on a red floral-patterned cushion with a blue and white patterned cloth draped beneath and beside her, against a plain pale background. Rendered in a restrained palette of ivory skin tones, black hair, and blue and red patterned textiles, this hand-printed woodblock print by Hashiguchi Goyo is titled Yokugo no Onna (year unknown).
