De vijfde maand 1901 - 1903

"De vijfde maand" (The Fifth Month) is a woodblock print by Japanese artist Migita Toshihide, created between 1901 and 1903. The print depicts a woman in traditional clothing, seated and holding a round object, likely a fan. The scene is set against a light, hazy background dotted with glowing orbs, perhaps fireflies. This evocative image captures a sense of tranquility and beauty, characteristic of Japanese woodblock art and its focus on nature and the fleeting moments of life. The work is currently on display at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
