Tokyo: Matsuki Heikichi, 1893. Woodcut in ink with embossing and hand-coloring in watercolor on handmade mulberry paper, 14 1/2 x 9 7/8 inches (368 x 251 mm), ōban tate-e, full margins. Scattered handling wear, adhesive residue on the verso, and minor edge losses at the left sheet edge and top right corner, well outside of image area. Meiji period (1868-1912), from the series of 47 essays and images called Sketches by Gekkō (Gekkō zuihitsu). Ogaka Gekkō (originally known as Nakagami Masanosuke) was a self-trained artist who was orphaned at a young age and survived by illustrating brochures, selling drawings, and designing rickshaws. While the likes of Kitagawa Utamaro, Hishikawa Moronobu, Keisei Eisen, and Suzuki Harunobu were regarded as the innovators and masters of the bijin-ga form, Gekkō was one of the first Japanese woodblock print designers to achieve international recognition during his lifetime. - Parkstone International, Looking Beyond the Portrait, November 5, 2015.

Scattered handling wear, adhesive residue and early linen tape repairs on the verso. Recto is largely unaffected. Meiji period (1868-1912), from the series of essays and images called Sketches by Gekkō (Gekkō zuihitsu). This particular essay from Gekkō zuihitsu is in reference to a legend of a strange, old woman who served a master who had a rare disease. The only cure for his ailment was the blood of children born in a certain month. The woman was said to roam the countryside taking small jobs in homes, secretly in search of children; a cautionary tale. Ogata Gekkō (originally known as Nakagami Masanosuke) was a self-trained artist who was orphaned at a young age and survived by illustrating brochures, selling drawings, and designing rickshaws.

Scattered handling creases and edge losses at the extreme edges, and a loss with associated skinning at the top right corner, outside of the image area. Some minor areas of adhesive residue in the margins on the verso. Colors remain fresh and vibrant.

Women are shown engaged in a plethora of idealized activities; traditionally dressed ladies are seen enjoying gardens, practicing ikebana, playing instruments, and serving tea. These prints are a window into the lives of women in 19th century Japan, and were meant to memorialize the the traditional customs, rituals and activities that were beginning to disappear.
