Description
A woman is depicted in one of Kotondo's bijin-ga compositions from 1929, a year in which he produced some of his most celebrated designs. Without additional title or context, the work likely belongs to his concentrated exploration of women in private moments — dressing, grooming, resting — that defined his most active bijin-ga period. The 1929 date places the composition within the final years before his output effectively slowed and eventually stopped.
