Dutch Couple Drinking Wine (Orandajin sakamori) 1861

This woodblock print, created by Utagawa Yoshikazu in 1861, depicts a Dutch couple enjoying a leisurely afternoon of drinking wine. The scene is set indoors with a window, a table, and a chair. The woman is wearing a red and white dress and the man is wearing a black jacket with a green hat. The print is a humorous take on the fashion and customs of Dutch people, who were popular subjects in Japanese art during the Edo period. Yoshikazu was known for his unique style, which blended traditional ukiyo-e techniques with Western influences. The print is a testament to his talent and creativity, as well as the artistic exchange between Japan and the West during the 19th century.
