"La Kamuro Assoupie" is a renowned woodblock print by Suzuki Harunobu, a prominent Japanese artist known for his significant contributions to the development of full-color printing or nishiki-e in the Edo period. Harunobu (1725–1770) was a prolific designer of ukiyo-e style woodblock prints and is celebrated for his delicate and lyrical depictions of women and romantic scenes, often imbued with a sense of elegance and ethereal beauty.

The title "La Kamuro Assoupie" translates to "The Sleeping Kamuro" in English, with "kamuro" referring to a young girl apprentice to an oiran (a high-ranking courtesan). This piece is emblematic of Harunobu's work, showcasing his adeptness at capturing intimate moments of everyday life with a refined and poetic touch. The print likely dates from the mid-18th century, a period during which Harunobu was at the height of his artistic powers and innovation, particularly noted for his pioneering use of multiple blocks to achieve a wide range of colors in his prints—a technique that was revolutionary at the time.

In "La Kamuro Assoupie," Harunobu depicts the young girl in a moment of vulnerability and innocence, asleep, possibly after a long day's work. The attention to detail in the depiction of her garments, the bedding, and the surrounding interior elements is meticulous, reflecting the artist's skill in portraying textures and patterns. The composition is balanced and harmonious, with a gentle use of color that enhances the tranquil and tender atmosphere of the scene.

This work is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its cultural implications, offering insights into the social structures and daily lives of Edo-period Japan. Through "La Kamuro Assoupie" and his other works, Harunobu contributes to our understanding of the period's aesthetics, social customs, and the role of art in everyday life.

As with many of Harunobu's prints, "La Kamuro Assoupie" is appreciated not only for its historical and cultural significance but also for its enduring beauty and the skillful artistry it represents. It remains a testament to Harunobu's mastery of the woodblock printing technique and his sensitive portrayal of human emotion and beauty.
