Product Details

Japanese hand-colored ink drawing from the 1940s.

Outer frame dimensions: Height 57 cm, Width 45 cm, Depth 2.5 cm.

The drawing is mounted with a passe-partout and framed behind glass.

The print is signed and stamped (red hanko), revealing the likely artist's name: Katsushika Orita.

This unique, hand-drawn, colorful wall decoration adds an authentic Japanese touch to any stylish interior.

The Japanese drawing in traditional ukiyo-e style depicts a geisha and her maiko (apprentice geisha) in traditional attire.

The geisha wears a striking headpiece and a refined kimono, symbolizing her experience and higher status.

Beside her stands the maiko, without a headpiece, holding a carrying pole with luggage, indicating her role in assisting the geisha during a journey. This image provides a glimpse into the geisha's world, highlighting the hierarchy and collaboration between the geisha and her apprentice, who together represent the art and culture of Japanese entertainment.

The use of color and patterns in the clothing, such as floral and geometric designs, is characteristic of this style. The print may be inspired by the works of famous ukiyo-e artists like Kitagawa Utamaro, renowned for his delicate and refined portraits of women.
