Tsukioka Yoshitoshi (1839-1892)
Courtesan with a pillow, a Japanese hanging scroll painting, Edo period, around AD 1865-70. A courtesan is shown undressing. Her flushed face is framed with a few stray strands of hair. As she undresses, she turns, probably to look at her client. She has already removed her vivid scarlet crepe silk sash, and is drawing her arm from her right sleeve, while in her left hand she holds a head-rest and pillow. The signature reads 'Yoshitoshi hitsu' ('the brush of Yoshitoshi'). The seal reads 'Yoshitoshi no in'. H: 37.75in., W: 11.75in. reg. no: AC 1881,1210,0.1754.
