Beside her, a seated woman in a mauve striped kimono examines a dark abalone shell in a shallow dish, one hand reaching toward a woven basket filled with seaweed. Pale waves fill the background under a soft gradient sky. The brushed signature 'Utamaro' sits at the upper right with no visible seal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKitagawa Utamaro (c. 1753–1806) defined the ukiyo-e portrait of women. Working with the publisher Tsutaya Jūzaburō in the 1790s, he introduced the ōkubi-e, or large-head print, which brought the viewer close enough to read a glance or a gesture, and he gave the beauties of the Yoshiwara district individual faces and names. Mica grounds, transparent textiles and fine line work made his prints the most refined of their day. His work is held by the British Museum, the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston and the Metropolitan Museum of Art.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePrinted as a museum-grade giclée on Hahnemühle fine art paper using 12-ink archival pigment printing.
