"Vrouw met bundel twijgen en vlieger" (Woman with a Bundle of Twigs and a Kite) is a woodblock print created by Katsushika Hokusai, a renowned Japanese artist, sometime between 1890 and 1900. Despite the later dating of the piece, it showcases Hokusai's signature style, characterized by intricate details, bold lines, and vibrant colors. The artwork depicts a woman, likely a geisha, dressed in elegant, intricately patterned clothing, her head adorned with a bundle of twigs and a kite. Hokusai's masterful use of perspective and composition creates a sense of depth and movement, capturing the essence of everyday life in Edo-period Japan. The piece is currently part of the Rijksmuseum's collection in Amsterdam.
