This ukiyo-e woodblock print, titled "Print", was created by famed Japanese artist Utagawa Kunisada between 1786 and 1854. The print depicts a woman in traditional Japanese dress standing on a balcony, holding a sword and gazing intently at a group of women peering out from behind a sliding door. The scene is set against a backdrop of a traditional Japanese home, with a view of a landscape beyond. Kunisada's vivid use of color and intricate details, combined with the dramatic composition, create a captivating visual narrative.
