Courtier and Young Attendant Gazing at a Landscape 1796

"Courtier and Young Attendant Gazing at a Landscape," a woodblock print by Kubo Shunman from 1796, depicts two figures, a courtier and a young attendant, strolling through a picturesque landscape. The figures are positioned in the foreground, while a distant mountain range occupies the upper half of the composition, suggesting a sense of vastness and perspective. The scene is rendered in muted tones, with subtle brushstrokes conveying the texture of the landscape and the figures' clothing, characteristic of Shunman's refined style.
