"Japanese Woman Winding up a Wall Clock (Edo Period 1600-1868, 1700-50)" is a woodblock print by Sukenobu Nishikawa (1671–1750), a renowned Japanese ukiyo-e artist known for his depictions of women and genre scenes from the Edo period. This particular print is a part of a larger body of work that illustrates the daily lives and activities of women during the Edo period, showcasing their roles and the cultural context of the time.

Sukenobu, also known as Nishikawa Sukenobu, was based in Kyoto and was noted for his distinctive style that diverged from the Edo (modern-day Tokyo) based ukiyo-e artists. His works were influential in the development of the "bijinga" genre, which literally means "pictures of beautiful women." Unlike many of his contemporaries who focused on the courtesans and urban life of Edo, Sukenobu's prints often portrayed the genteel women of Kyoto, providing a unique perspective on the customs and fashions of the imperial capital.

The print "Japanese Woman Winding up a Wall Clock" is significant for its depiction of a domestic scene, which includes a woman engaging with a wall clock. The presence of a clock in the artwork is particularly noteworthy, as it reflects the introduction and assimilation of Western technologies into Japanese life during the Edo period. This period was characterized by sakoku, Japan's policy of isolation, but despite this, some Western goods and ideas still managed to influence Japanese culture.

The artwork is executed with the finesse typical of Sukenobu's style, capturing the elegance and subtlety of the subject. The woman's attire and the interior elements are rendered with attention to detail, providing insights into the aesthetic and material culture of the time. The print is not only a work of art but also an important historical document that contributes to our understanding of the period's social history and the role of women within it.

As an ukiyo-e print, "Japanese Woman Winding up a Wall Clock" would have been produced through a collaborative process involving the artist, the carver, the printer, and the publisher. This collaborative nature is a hallmark of the ukiyo-e tradition, with each print being the result of multiple skilled artisans working together to create the final product.

Today, Sukenobu's works are considered important cultural artifacts and are held in various collections around the world, offering a window into the world of Edo-period Japan and the artistic traditions that flourished during this time.
