About this Item
A beautiful colour woodblock-printed triptych depicting fashionable ladies' hairstyles of the mid-Meiji period, by famous Japanese ukiyo-e artist Adachi Ginko (1853-1908). Ginko, most famous for his illustrations of well-known scenes from Japanese history and of beautiful women, is probably best-known today for his caricature of the Meiji Emperor for which he jailed for a year. In this particular triptych he illustrates the most popular and fashionable hairstyles of the time for modern Japanese women. A pretty set of prints on stylish Meiji period hairstyles. Triptych. Very minor foxing, slight wear to extremities, otherwise near fine to fine. 3 prints, complete. Each print measures approx. 36.2 x 24.4 cm. Text in Japanese. Seller Inventory # 713
