Description: This hashira-e-ban, or pillar-picture format print, depicts a young woman dressing herself after taking a bath. Hashira-e is a type of Japanese ukiyo-e print, specifically designed to be hung on interior pillars as decoration. These long and narrow prints, typically measuring around 76 cm in height and 13 cm in width, were popular during the Edo period.

In this scene, the woman is fastening her bathrobe while holding a cloth with her teeth. A poem is written in the background. The color palette, featuring vibrant pinks and blues along with the flower pattern of her bathrobe, adds dynamism and vivacity to the overall design.

This particular print is a reproduction from the early Showa period.

Please note that this print will be folded for shipping.

There are some foxing spots, folds, and toning on this print. Also, there are some glue residues on the back.
