Painting Description
"Beauty After Bath" (湯上り美人, "Yugami bijin") is a woodblock print by Okumura Masanobu, a Japanese ukiyo-e artist active during the Edo period. Created in the 18th century, this print is an example of Masanobu's work during the development of the full-color printing technique known as nishiki-e, which emerged in the 1760s. Masanobu was instrumental in the evolution of ukiyo-e from its monochromatic beginnings to the vibrant and complex prints that characterize the genre's golden age.
The print depicts a bijin-ga, a genre of ukiyo-e that focuses on beautiful women. In "Beauty After Bath," the subject is portrayed fresh from the bath, a common theme that allowed artists to showcase the grace and elegance of the female form. The woman's attire and hairstyle reflect the fashion and beauty standards of the Edo period, providing insight into the cultural and social norms of the time.
Masanobu's work is characterized by a refined use of line and color, and "Beauty After Bath" exemplifies his skill in capturing the delicate interplay of light and shadow on the human figure. The print also demonstrates the artist's adeptness at using the newly developed nishiki-e technique to enhance the visual impact of his compositions.
As an important work by Okumura Masanobu, "Beauty After Bath" contributes to the understanding of the evolution of ukiyo-e and the artistic innovations that occurred during the Edo period. The print remains a valuable piece of Japanese art history, reflecting the aesthetic sensibilities and technical advancements of its time.
