Description
A pair of Japanese ukiyo-e woodblock prints, likely dating from the Edo or Meiji period, depicting bijinga or ‘beautiful women.’ The left print features a bust portrait of a woman presented within an oval frame against a light blue background. Her hair is adorned with red ribbons and light blue floral ornaments, rendered with various pigments including red, black, and blue. Japanese text, including what appears to be a red seal and black calligraphy, is visible in the upper left and lower right. The right print depicts a full-figure woman seated on a patterned mat in an interior setting, wearing a patterned kimono. A small cartouche in the upper left corner shows a building landscape, and extensive Japanese text is present in vertical red cartouches and black script.
Condition report:
Overall paper toning or discoloration, some color fading, and minor surface wear or creasing are present on both prints, consistent with their age and material.
