Tatsumi Shimura
Traditional Japanese Geisha (Kiba II)

2009

About the Item

A beautiful Japanese geisha dressed in a traditional robe shyly claps her hands together. She stands in front of a backdrop of a bamboo screen. This print was supervised by Tatsunori Shimura, descendent of the artist and was based on a painting by Tatsumi Shimura. Shimura had a long career, working as an illustrator as well as a print designer for bijin-ga (prints of beautiful women). Numbered “HC” (hors commerce) from an limited edition of 99, and printed by Inter Art Company in Japan. This print reads as a painting and was created with the highest quality standards. This work would work especially well in a bedroom, bathroom or dressing area.
