"Iroha Zoro-e" is a series of ukiyo-e woodblock prints by the renowned Japanese artist Kitagawa Utamaro (c. 1753–1806). Created during the Edo period, this series is a visual representation of the Iroha, an ancient Japanese poem that was once used as a primer for ordering the Japanese syllabary. The Iroha poem contains 47 characters, each used only once, and it has been a subject of artistic and literary inspiration for centuries.

Kitagawa Utamaro, known for his exquisite bijinga (pictures of beautiful women), infused the Iroha Zoro-e series with his distinctive style, portraying elegant women in various activities that correspond to each character of the Iroha. The series is a testament to Utamaro's mastery of line, color, and composition, as well as his ability to capture the subtleties of female beauty and expression.

Each print in the Iroha Zoro-e series is not only a work of art but also a cultural artifact that offers insight into the customs, fashion, and daily life of women in the late 18th-century Japan. The series exemplifies the genre of ukiyo-e, which translates to "pictures of the floating world," a term that reflects the transient nature of life and the pursuit of pleasure in the urban culture of the time.

The Iroha Zoro-e series by Kitagawa Utamaro is a significant contribution to the ukiyo-e tradition and Japanese art as a whole. It remains an important subject of study for art historians and enthusiasts of Japanese culture, offering a window into the world of Edo-period Japan and the enduring legacy of one of its most celebrated artists.
