This print showcases the exquisite artistry of Tosendo Rifu in his masterpiece, "Standing Courtesan" created around 1720. The image transports us to the elegant world of 18th-century Japan, where a courtesan stands gracefully in her full-length kimono. Every detail is meticulously captured on silk using ink and color, revealing the artist's skillful brushwork. The courtesan's attire reflects the fashion trends of that era, with vibrant colors and intricate patterns adorning her garment. Her profession as a courtesan is hinted at through subtle symbolism within the painting, inviting viewers to delve deeper into Japanese literature and poetry associated with this occupation. Displayed as a hanging scroll in The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this heritage artwork not only captivates our visual senses but also serves as a cultural treasure from centuries past. It represents an artistic school known as ukiyo-e which flourished during this period.
