Though the title suggests “Seven Women,” only this singular image is known. Based on the delicate shape of her eyes, the figure is believed to be Naniwa-ya Okita, celebrated as the most beautiful woman in Edo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUtamaro captures her elegance from every angle: her back as she faces the mirror, her reflection, and the subtle gestures that convey grace and refinement. The use of mica on the mirror’s surface brilliantly highlights the shimmering effect of her reflection, emphasizing the artist’s attention to detail and his admiration for her beauty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOriginally produced during the Edo period, this is a recarved edition from the late Shōwa era (1980–1990) issued by the publisher Yuyudo. Part of Utamaro’s ukiyo-e collection marked “not for sale,” this print showcases exceptional color, exquisite line work, and meticulous craftsmanship. It is a rare opportunity to appreciate the timeless elegance and artistry of Utamaro’s vision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTechnique: Woodblock\u003cbr\u003ePrint size: 8 and 5\/8 x 12 and 5\/8 inches (22 x 32 cm)\u003cbr\u003eImage size: 7 and 5\/8 x 11 and 3\/8 inches (19.5 x 29 cm)\u003cbr\u003eDate:  Showa era (1980-1990)\u003cbr\u003eSigned: Signature on the lower right side of the image\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Excellent condition.\u003cbr\u003e*Handmade Japanese washi paper may contain bark bits or natural impurities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e*** ABOUT SHIPPING *** \u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003ca title=\"SHIPPING FOR DOMESTIC BUYERS\" href=\"https:\/\/sakurafineart.com\/pages\/shipping-for-domestic-buyers\"\u003eFor Domestic Buyers\u003c\/a\u003e   \u003ca title=\"- ABOUT DOMESTIC SHIPPING -\" href=\"https:\/\/sakurafineart.com\/pages\/shipping-for-domestic-buyers\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1067\/0092\/files\/1_icon.png?v=1553866651\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eFlat shipping rate  (\u003cspan\u003eUPS 3-Day, fully insured)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e:\u003c\/span\u003e $18.00\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHowever, for PO Box addresses, US military addresses (APO, AP), Hawaii, and Alaska, we will continue to use USPS Priority Mail.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eWhen you use our shopping cart and go to checkout, you will see your shipping charge.
