"Tenugui Moteru Onna" (Woman Holding a Towel) is a celebrated woodblock print by the renowned Japanese artist Goyo Hashiguchi. Created in 1920, this work exemplifies the artist's mastery in the shin-hanga (new prints) movement, which sought to revitalize traditional ukiyo-e techniques with contemporary sensibilities. Goyo Hashiguchi, born in 1880, was instrumental in this movement, blending Western realism with traditional Japanese aesthetics to produce works of remarkable beauty and technical precision.

The print depicts a young woman delicately holding a tenugui, a traditional Japanese hand towel, which she appears to be using to dry herself after a bath. The composition is notable for its serene and intimate portrayal of the subject, capturing a moment of quiet reflection. The woman's graceful pose, combined with the subtle play of light and shadow on her skin, showcases Goyo's exceptional skill in rendering the human form with both sensitivity and elegance.

Goyo's attention to detail is evident in the intricate patterns of the tenugui and the soft, flowing lines of the woman's hair. The use of muted colors and the careful gradation of tones contribute to the overall sense of calm and tranquility that pervades the image. This print is often lauded for its exquisite craftsmanship and the delicate balance it strikes between realism and idealization.

"Tenugui Moteru Onna" is part of a larger body of work by Goyo that focuses on bijin-ga, or "pictures of beautiful women." These prints not only highlight the physical beauty of the subjects but also convey a deeper sense of their inner lives and emotions. Goyo's ability to capture the subtleties of expression and gesture has earned him a lasting place in the history of Japanese art.

Today, "Tenugui Moteru Onna" is considered one of Goyo Hashiguchi's masterpieces and is highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts of Japanese woodblock prints. It stands as a testament to the enduring appeal of the shin-hanga movement and the timeless beauty of Goyo's artistic vision.
