Girl by a Mosquito Net (later edition) 1766

"Girl by a Mosquito Net (later edition)" is a woodblock print by Suzuki Harunobu, a prominent artist of the mid-18th century Edo period in Japan. The work depicts a young woman seated in an interior space, partially concealed by a mosquito net, suggesting a scene of intimate domesticity. Harunobu's signature style, known for its delicate lines, subtle color gradation, and graceful figures, is evident in this piece. The print, created using the "chūban" format, showcases the artist's mastery of the ukiyo-e genre, a vibrant art form that captured the fleeting pleasures of everyday life in Edo.
