EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Cutting her nails Series The Universe of Women (Shinramanzac)" by Utagawa Kuniyoshi takes us back to the vibrant world of 19th-century Japan.

The image depicts a scene from everyday life, where a woman is delicately cutting her nails. However, what makes this piece truly intriguing is its inclusion of various elements that were characteristic of Kuniyoshi's work. From warriors and battles to beautiful women and animals such as cats, his art often blended different genres and themes. Kuniyoshi was renowned for his ability to create dynamic compositions with bold lines and vivid colors.
