Japanese woodblock print by T Kiyonaga Evening on the Banks of the Sumida River

The print depicts three women in traditional Japanese clothing enjoying the cool evening air along the banks of the Sumida River. Kiyonaga’s works, particularly his bijin-ga (prints of beautiful women), were popular during the Tenmei era and are known for their elegant depiction of women and their leisure activities. This print offers a glimpse into the “floating world” or ukiyo culture of Edo-period Japan, showcasing aspects of daily life and leisure during that time. It is a diptych of woodblock prints, created using ink and color on paper.
