This woodblock print by Torii Kiyomitsu depicts a young woman entering a room. The woman is dressed in a kimono with an elaborate floral pattern. The print, which is vertical in format, emphasizes the woman’s graceful movement, likely reflecting the elegant style of kabuki actors, a popular form of Japanese theater. The print was created between 1760 and 1764, during the Edo period, a time when woodblock prints were a popular form of art in Japan. This piece, created in the *ukiyo-e* style, captures the vibrant culture of the Edo era and provides a glimpse into the daily life of Japanese society.
