The full-length portrait depicts Princess Fujitsubo, a character from the famous literary masterpiece 'The Tale of Genji, ' dressed in exquisite traditional clothing. In this artwork, Gakutei skillfully combines ink and color on paper to bring out every intricate detail of Princess Fujitsubo's attire. Her vibrant kimono adorned with delicate patterns and rich hues reflects her royal status. Holding a hand-held fan delicately, she exudes poise and sophistication. The artist's attention to detail extends beyond her clothing; he captures her serene expression and gentle demeanor flawlessly. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time to witness a moment frozen forever - an intimate glimpse into the life of royalty.
