The subject is shown in a moment of repose, leaning against a tall, cylindrical andon lamp. Her posture suggests a sense of contemplation or weariness, common in the portrayals of women within the Edo-period floating world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKuniyasu, a pupil of the master Utagawa Toyokuni I, employs a clean, linear style that emphasises the patterns of the woman's kimono. The garment features floral motifs, rendered with precise black ink lines against the negative space of the paper. To the left, a folding screen decorated with iris motifs provides a subtle background element, grounding the figure within a recognisable interior setting. The composition is sparse, allowing the viewer to focus on the figure's silhouette and the delicate arrangement of her hair and clothing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrints of this nature were produced for a broad audience in Edo, serving as both fashion plates and artistic expressions of feminine grace. The absence of colour in this specific impression highlights the quality of the line work and the skill of the carver in translating the artist's brush strokes into the woodblock medium. The paper shows the natural ageing expected of a work from the early 19th century, adding to its character as an authentic historical object. This piece offers a glimpse into the aesthetic values of the Utagawa school, where the balance between figure and empty space creates a sense of calm. It remains a representative example of the technical proficiency found in Japanese printmaking during the late Edo period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/de\/products\/asakusa-imado-utagawa-kuniyoshi\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eAsakusa Imado - Utagawa Kuniyoshi — Utagawa Kuniyoshi\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/de\/products\/two-chinese-women-utagawa-yoshitora\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eTwo Chinese Women - Utagawa Yoshitora — Utagawa Yoshitora\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Kuniyasu","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58810587808079,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58810601701711,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58810601734479,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58810601767247,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58810601800015,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58810601832783,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58810601865551,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58810601898319,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58810601931087,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58810601963855,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58810601996623,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58810602029391,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Young-Woman-Leaning-over-a-Tall-Lamp_Poster_CompositorV1_1789683070093.jpg?v=1789710238","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.co.uk\/de\/products\/young-woman-leaning-over-a-tall-lamp-utagawa-kuniyasu","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
