Description

A Japanese woodblock print triptych in the Ukiyo-e style, likely dating from the Edo or early Meiji period. The three vertically oriented sheets form a continuous narrative depicting numerous female figures engaged in activity by a body of water. Some figures are depicted in kimonos, while others are in various states of undress. A distant boat and land formations are visible in the background. Vertical Japanese text, likely a title and artist’s signature, is present on the far-right panel.


Condition report:
