The prints by Kitagawa Utamaro, for sale on Amazon
The works of Kitagawa Utamaro (1753-1806) are known for the beautiful paintings characterized by delicate and elegant lines. He has earned a wide reputation as a ukiyo-e artist internationally renowned as Toshusai Sharaku (?-?), Katsushika Hokusai (1760-1849), and Utagawa Hiroshige (1797-1858).
He painted the town girls with very lively figures as well as the prostitutes and courtesans. He then omitted a body part from the beauty’s painting and devised a composition centered on the face. He, therefore, made a close-up of the faces and drew not only the superficial aspects of the women but also their daily life, personality, and emotions.
