Looking cold - The appearance of a-Fukagawa-Nakamichi-Geisha-of-the-Tempo-era 

"Looking Cold - The Appearance of a Fukagawa Nakamichi Geisha of the Tempo Era" is a woodblock print by the renowned Japanese artist Tsukioka Yoshitoshi, known for his dramatic and evocative depictions of kabuki actors and historical figures. This piece showcases a geisha, a traditional Japanese entertainer, draped in a richly patterned kimono, with a delicate and somewhat melancholic expression. The composition emphasizes the geisha’s elegant form against a background of falling snow, creating a sense of quiet contemplation and subtle beauty, characteristic of Yoshitoshi's art. The work is a striking example of the ukiyo-e style, which flourished in Edo period Japan, capturing everyday scenes and the fleeting beauty of life.
