"A Man Painting a Woman" is a notable woodblock print by the celebrated Japanese ukiyo-e artist Kitagawa Utamaro (c. 1753 – 1806). This work exemplifies Utamaro's mastery in portraying the female form and his keen interest in the daily lives and intimate scenes of women in the Edo period. The print is part of Utamaro's extensive oeuvre, which often focuses on bijinga (pictures of beautiful women).

In "A Man Painting a Woman," Utamaro depicts a scene where a male artist is engaged in the act of painting a portrait of a woman, who appears to be a courtesan or a woman of leisure. The composition is carefully arranged to provide a glimpse into the artistic process of the time, as well as the relationship between the artist and his subject. The woman's expression and posture, along with the attentive stance of the painter, suggest a narrative that goes beyond a simple portrait session, inviting viewers to ponder the social and cultural context of the artwork.

The print is characterized by Utamaro's delicate lines and the use of a subtle color palette, which were hallmarks of his style. His ability to capture the nuances of emotion and the intricacies of textile patterns won him acclaim during his lifetime and continues to be celebrated by art historians and collectors.

"A Man Painting a Woman" is not only a testament to Utamaro's artistic skill but also provides insight into the role of the artist in Edo society, the status of women, and the popular culture of the time. As with many of Utamaro's works, this print has been studied for its contributions to the development of ukiyo-e and its influence on later artistic movements, both in Japan and abroad.

The print remains an important piece in the study of Japanese art and has been featured in various exhibitions and collections dedicated to ukiyo-e. It continues to attract scholarly attention for its aesthetic qualities and as a valuable document of the cultural history of Japan during the Edo period.
