Painting Description
"Woman Applying Make-up" is a celebrated woodblock print by the renowned Japanese artist Goyo Hashiguchi, created in 1918. Hashiguchi, born in 1880, was a pivotal figure in the shin-hanga (new prints) movement, which sought to revitalize traditional ukiyo-e art with modern sensibilities and techniques. This particular work is exemplary of Hashiguchi's meticulous attention to detail, his masterful use of color, and his ability to capture the intimate, everyday moments of women in the Taishō period.
The print depicts a woman in a private, introspective moment, applying make-up with a hand mirror. The composition is both elegant and serene, showcasing Hashiguchi's skill in rendering delicate textures, such as the woman's skin and the intricate patterns of her kimono. The subtle gradations of color and the soft, flowing lines contribute to the overall sense of tranquility and grace. This piece is often lauded for its ability to convey the quiet dignity and beauty of the subject, reflecting the artist's deep appreciation for the feminine form and the nuances of daily life.
Hashiguchi's work is characterized by a blend of traditional Japanese aesthetics and Western influences, which is evident in "Woman Applying Make-up." The artist's training in Western painting techniques, combined with his profound understanding of Japanese woodblock printing, allowed him to create works that were both innovative and deeply rooted in cultural heritage. This print is a testament to Hashiguchi's artistic vision and his contribution to the shin-hanga movement, which sought to breathe new life into the ukiyo-e tradition during a time of significant cultural and social change in Japan.
"Woman Applying Make-up" remains a significant work in the canon of Japanese art, admired for its technical excellence and its evocative portrayal of a timeless, intimate moment. It continues to be studied and appreciated by art historians, collectors, and enthusiasts around the world.
