"Suetsumuhana" is a notable woodblock print created by Yanagawa Shigenobu, a Japanese ukiyo-e artist active during the late Edo period. Shigenobu was the pupil and son-in-law of the famous ukiyo-e master Hokusai. The print is part of a larger series that depicts various women in traditional Japanese settings, showcasing the beauty and elegance of the subjects through intricate detail and expressive composition.

The title "Suetsumuhana" translates to "Sparing Blossom," which is a reference to a character from the classic Heian-period novel "The Tale of Genji." This character is known for her beauty and unassuming nature, which is reflected in the delicate portrayal of the woman in the print. The artwork captures the aesthetic and cultural values of the Edo period, emphasizing the grace and subtlety of the female form within the context of Japanese literature and poetry.

In the print, the woman is typically shown in a moment of quiet contemplation or engaged in a cultural activity such as reading or writing poetry, embodying the idealized virtues of the time. The use of color and line in "Suetsumuhana" is representative of Shigenobu's style, which often included vibrant hues and a strong sense of design that contributed to the overall emotional impact of the piece.

"Suetsumuhana" is considered an important work within the genre of bijinga, or pictures of beautiful women, which was a popular subject in ukiyo-e prints. It reflects the technical skill and artistic sensibility of Yanagawa Shigenobu, contributing to our understanding of the cultural and artistic milieu of 19th-century Japan. As with many ukiyo-e prints, "Suetsumuhana" has been studied for its historical significance as well as its aesthetic qualities, offering insight into the social constructs and visual culture of the Edo period.
