Chobunsai Eishi (1756–1829) was a prominent Japanese ukiyo-e artist of the Edo period, renowned for his elegant and refined portrayals of bijin-ga, or "pictures of beautiful women." Among his notable works is "Hashira," a series of woodblock prints that exemplify his distinctive style and artistic sensibilities. Eishi, originally born as Hosoda Tokitomi, was initially trained as a painter in the Kano school, a prestigious lineage of artists patronized by the shogunate. However, he later transitioned to ukiyo-e, where he found his true calling.

"Hashira" refers to pillar prints, a unique format in ukiyo-e art characterized by their tall and narrow dimensions, typically around 24 by 4 inches. These prints were often used to decorate the wooden pillars of traditional Japanese homes. Eishi's "Hashira" series stands out for its graceful compositions and the delicate beauty of its subjects, often depicting women in fashionable attire, engaged in various activities or posed in contemplative stances.

Eishi's mastery in capturing the subtleties of feminine beauty is evident in the "Hashira" series. His use of soft, flowing lines and muted color palettes creates a sense of elegance and sophistication. The women in his prints are often adorned in intricately patterned kimonos, with meticulous attention to detail that highlights the luxurious fabrics and accessories of the time. Eishi's work not only reflects the aesthetic ideals of the Edo period but also provides a glimpse into the cultural and social milieu of the era.

The "Hashira" series by Chobunsai Eishi remains a significant contribution to the ukiyo-e genre, celebrated for its artistic finesse and cultural relevance. Eishi's ability to blend traditional techniques with his unique vision has cemented his legacy as one of the foremost artists of his time, and his "Hashira" prints continue to be admired by art enthusiasts and scholars alike.
