"Depicting Two Women with a Monkey" is a woodblock print by the renowned Japanese ukiyo-e artist Kitagawa Utamaro (c. 1753 – 1806). Utamaro was a prominent figure in the late 18th century during the Edo period, known for his exquisite bijinga, or pictures of beautiful women, which often captured the subtleties of female beauty and the everyday life of women in Edo (modern-day Tokyo).

This particular print is characteristic of Utamaro's style, which is marked by a delicate and refined use of line and color. The artwork features two women, likely courtesans or geisha, in an intimate setting with a monkey. The presence of the monkey adds a playful and possibly symbolic element to the composition, as monkeys were often associated with protection against evil spirits or were seen as a sign of cleverness and curiosity in Japanese folklore.

The print is executed with the traditional ukiyo-e technique, which involves the collaboration between the artist who designs the image, the carver who cuts the woodblocks, the printer who applies the ink, and the publisher who finances and distributes the work. Utamaro's mastery of the medium is evident in the intricate patterns of the women's kimonos, the expressive faces, and the careful attention to the naturalistic portrayal of the monkey.

"Depicting Two Women with a Monkey" is a testament to Utamaro's skill in portraying human relationships and emotions, as well as his ability to infuse his subjects with a sense of grace and elegance. The print remains an important work within the ukiyo-e genre and contributes to Utamaro's legacy as one of the most influential artists of his time.

The artwork is held in various collections and has been the subject of study for its artistic merit and cultural significance. It continues to be appreciated for its aesthetic qualities and as a window into the cultural and social dynamics of the Edo period in Japan.
