Measuring 35.8 x 24.4 cm, this artwork is housed in the prestigious Arthur M. Sackler Gallery at the Smithsonian Institution in the USA. The Anne van Biema Collection proudly displays this piece that depicts a strong and resilient fisherwoman against a backdrop of crashing waves and endless ocean. The intricate details of this woodblock print reveal both artistic skill and cultural significance. The woman's vibrant attire stands out against her surroundings, symbolizing her connection to nature as she engages in her daily fishing routine.
