Blue Geisha by Kuniyoshi
Blue Geisha is a bold figurative work from Utagawa Kuniyoshi, one of the last great masters of the Edo-period ukiyo-e tradition. Known primarily for dynamic warrior prints, Kuniyoshi also produced expressive portraits of women — bijin-ga — that combined the graphic confidence of his warrior compositions with softer decorative detail. Here, deep blue tones dominate the figure, creating a composition of strong contrast and considered elegance. The flat planes of colour and decisive outlines are hallmarks of the woodblock print tradition.
Printed as an archival fine art print, fine details and color nuances come through with complete clarity, honoring the original on museum-grade paper.
