Description:

Thursday, 20 August 2009 Comments - Lovely shin hanga woodblock of a beautiful young woman combing her hair. She wears a blue and white cotton kimono with an embossed white design, one sleeve slipping off her shoulder to reveal her creamy white skin tinged with the palest pink touches. She has a dreamy expression, her dark eyes large and luminous, and her hair is softly arranged with loose tendrils escaping. A wonderful classic 20th century beauty print, beautifully printed with fine details. Would make a striking framed display. Artist - 20th century artist (not translated) Image Size - 14 1/4" x 10" + margins as shown Condition - With excellent color and detail as shown. Slight paper remnants and slight thinning on reverse at three points along top edge from previous folio mounting. Several small tears at edges in margins only, very small losses at three corners, repaired, blends well. Slight toning in margins, a few faint spots. Please see photos for details. Nice overall.
