"Seated Woman" is a 19th-century ink drawing by the renowned Japanese artist Katsushika Hokusai, known for his woodblock prints. The drawing, housed at the Minneapolis Institute of Art, depicts a seated woman in a simple, yet elegant, pose. Hokusai's masterful use of line conveys the figure's form with precision and fluidity, capturing the graceful curves of her body and the delicate folds of her clothing. The artwork is a testament to Hokusai's talent as a draftsman and his enduring influence on Japanese art.
