It portrays Hinazuru, a famed courtesan of the Chōjiya House in the Yoshiwara district, with refined elegance and quiet poise. The print reflects Utamaro’s mastery of bijin-ga, or pictures of beautiful women, through its graceful linework, coloration, and sensitive attention to feminine beauty. Hinazuru is portrayed not simply as a fashionably dressed figure, but as an embodiment of the urban sophistication and idealized beauty admired in late eighteenth-century Edo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOriginally printed during the Edo period, this is a recarved edition from the late Shōwa era (1980–1990). The publisher is Yuyudo; however, this print is part of Utamaro’s ukiyo-e collection issued as “not for sale.” This woodblock print features high-quality colors and intricate details. The traditional round fan (uchiwa) she is holding is rendered with remarkable detail, from its delicate ribs to the finely depicted floral design, giving it an almost tangible quality. Please take a moment to appreciate the superb craftsmanship and fine detail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTechnique:\u003c\/strong\u003e Woodblock\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePrint size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8 5\/8 × 12 1\/2 inches (22 × 31.7 cm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImage size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7 5\/8 × 11 1\/4 inches (19.5 × 28.5 cm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Late Shōwa era (1980–1990)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSigned\u003c\/strong\u003e: Utamaro signature in the lower right area of the image\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Excellent condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eHandmade Japanese washi paper may contain small bark fibers or natural impurities.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\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.
