Original woodblock print - Keisai Eisen (1790-1848) - Courtesan Yosooi 粧ひ of the Matsubaya House 松葉屋 and Mount Fuji 富士山 - Japan - ca 1825
Important original woodblock print of vertical large oban 大判 format, produced around 1825 by the publisher Moritaya Hanzo 森田屋半蔵, made by the artist Keisai Eisen 渓斎英泉 and depicting the famous courtesan Yosooi 粧ひ of the house of pleasure Matsubaya 松葉屋.
In front of the woman, who is holding a kiseru 煙管 (pipe), we see an elegant tabakobon 煙草盆 tobacco tray; behind her a refined byobu 屏風 screen depicting a snowy view of Mount Fuji 富士山.
The precious print, despite the proper aging of the Japanese washi paper 和紙 and some signs of horizontal folding, is in overall good condition.
