A woodblock print by Kitagawa Utamaro, this artwork depicts a woman tending to a child, showcasing the artist's mastery of the ukiyo-e style and his refined approach to portraying everyday life.
Kitagawa Utamaro (1753-1806) was a prominent Japanese artist best known for his ukiyo-e woodblock prints and paintings. He is considered one of the masters of the ukiyo-e genre, particularly for his depictions of bijin-ga (pictures of beautiful women). Utamaro's work captured the elegance and grace of women in various settings, often portraying their daily lives and activities. His prints are characterised by their refined lines, delicate colours, and expressive figures. This woodblock print shows a woman leaning over a tub or well, attending to a child. The woman is dressed in flowing robes, with a patterned outer garment. A small dog sits at her feet. The print is executed in a muted palette of beige, black, and brown, typical of ukiyo-e prints. The composition is carefully balanced, with the figures arranged to create a sense of depth and movement. The inclusion of text and seals adds to the overall aesthetic, providing additional information about the print and its creator.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
