Series; Renowned Beauties Likened to the Six Immortal Poets
Takashima Ohisa - Lovely portrait of Takashima Ohisa smiling demurely as she looks back over her shoulder, delicately touching the collar of her kimono. Her hair is swept back into a large bun adorned with a ribbon and many hairpins. The inset at upper right shows a falcon perched on a branch above a lake, with a heron alongside a fisherman's fire basket, which forms a picture puzzle sounding like the beauty's name. An attractive design.

Image Size - 15" x 10" + margins as shown
Condition - This print with excellent color and detail as shown. A few light creases at corners. Please see photos for details. Nice overall.
