Description

*Flower Maiden* (1982), a woodblock print by Ryusei Okamoto, depicts two bare-chested female figures with pale skin and black hair standing on a dark rock, draped in matching red robes pulled down to their waists. One holds a fan-like object and the other a small white flower, their heads tilted together in profile against a mottled black-and-gold background. They stand amid a bed of green lily pads dotted with small white lotus blossoms, rendered in flat, stylized color blocks.
