The series is significant for its artistic and cultural value, as it provides insight into the changing ideals of beauty and the social shifts occurring during the Meiji period (1868-1912). Each print in the series typically features one or more elegantly dressed women in a setting that may include both Japanese and Western elements, highlighting the juxtaposition and integration of different cultural influences.

Chikanobu's attention to detail in the depiction of textiles, patterns, and accessories, along with the intricate hairstyles, showcases his skill as an artist and his dedication to representing the contemporary fashion of his time. "Comparison of Beautiful Women in Western Coiffures" is not only a collection of aesthetically pleasing images but also a historical document that captures the essence of a pivotal era in Japan's history.
