She wears a blue kimono with an orange-red sash patterned in pale roundels and a red-and-white dappled collar, and holds a round cream fan low at her hip. Arching sprays of white bush clover with small rounded leaves fill the foot of the picture. Her signature and two red seals stand at the left.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUemura Shōen (1875–1949) was a Japanese painter who worked in nihonga, the modern Japanese style of ink and mineral pigment on silk and paper, and who made the bijin-ga — the painting of beautiful women — her life's subject in a genre that had been almost entirely male. Born in Kyoto, she studied under Suzuki Shōnen at the Kyoto Prefectural Painting School, then under Kōno Bairei from 1893 and Takeuchi Seihō after Bairei's death. Her women are drawn with an exact, unhurried line and set against wide expanses of bare silk, as in Flame (1918), Jo-no-mai (1936) and Sōshi-arai Komachi (1937). She was appointed an Imperial Household Artist in 1944 and in 1948 became the first woman to receive Japan's Order of Culture. Her paintings are held by the Tokyo National Museum, the National Museum of Modern Art, Tokyo, and the Shōhaku Art Museum in Nara.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePrinted as a museum-grade giclée on Hahnemühle fine art paper using 12-ink archival pigment printing.
