"Reigning Beauty Hanozuma" is a woodblock print created by the renowned Japanese artist Kitagawa Utamaro (c. 1753–1806). The print features a beautiful woman, possibly a courtesan, depicted in an elegant and graceful pose as she adjusts her patterned robe. Utamaro, a master of the *bijin-ga* (pictures of beautiful women) genre, is known for his exquisite depictions of women's features and the delicate details of their clothing. This print exemplifies his meticulous attention to detail and captures the captivating allure of the female form. It represents the beauty and refinement of Japanese culture during the Edo period.
