This ukiyo-e woodblock print by the renowned Japanese artist Kitagawa Utamaro, known for his beautiful depictions of women, portrays two women in traditional dress. The composition features a standing woman in a rich yellow, red and green robe, possibly a courtesan, with a seated figure in a patterned robe and a decorative kimono. The intricate details in the clothing, the delicate facial features, and the overall elegant composition are characteristic of Utamaro's style. The print likely depicts a scene from everyday life in Edo-era Japan.
