Thirty-two Fashionable Physiognomies - Wanted to Show
Catalog note / 解説
From "Tosei Sanju-ni So" ("Thirty-two Fashionable Physiognomies"). One of Kunichika's major works. The series showcased still typical Ukiyo-e beauties but their face expressions and gestures were livelier and more personalized. These down-to-earth beauties were the harbinger of "the Meiji realism" which became increasingly popular during the mid - late Meiji period.
