This woodblock print, created sometime between 1910 and 1939, is a work by the renowned Japanese artist Takehisa Yumeji. The print depicts a woman in a traditional Japanese kimono, holding a green and white fan. The delicate lines and subtle colors are characteristic of Yumeji's style, known as "Yumeji-e," which captured the beauty and elegance of modern Japanese women. This piece, housed at the Minneapolis Institute of Art, is a testament to Yumeji's enduring influence on Japanese art.
