EDITORS COMMENTS
This polychrome woodblock print by Torii Kiyonaga, titled "Cutting the Toenails; the Toilet after the Bath" offers a fascinating glimpse into 18th century Japan. The artist masterfully captures a moment of intimate daily life during the Edo period, showcasing his meticulous attention to detail and skill in ukiyo-e printing. In this scene, we witness a full-length depiction of two individuals engaged in personal grooming rituals. A young woman delicately tends to her feet while cutting her toenails, highlighting the importance placed on hygiene and self-care during this era. Her graceful posture and serene expression exude elegance and femininity. Adjacent to her stands a man, possibly an attendant or companion, observing her with curiosity. His presence adds depth to the composition as he provides contrast both in gender and attire. This juxtaposition emphasizes societal norms surrounding beauty standards at that time.

The rich hues evoke a sense of warmth and vitality that transports viewers back in time.
