The appearance of a kept woman of the Kaei era (1848-54)

A woman is shown half-turned within a green mosquito net, her kimono slipping open at the shoulder to bare her chest as she pulls a patterned indigo-and-white robe across herself with one hand; a yellow comb and hairpin sit in her upswept black hair, and a red patterned cloth is glimpsed at the top edge. The palette is dominated by deep green, cream, indigo, and red, with vertical cartouches of Japanese text at upper right. This is Tsukioka Yoshitoshi's "The Appearance of a Kept Woman of the Kaei Era (1848–54)," 1848, mokuhanga (Japanese woodblock print).
