(Kanbaku. Jōkyō goro fujin, 観瀑. 貞享頃婦人).
This print by Mizuno Toshikata presents a traditional Japanese landscape, depicting a serene and picturesque scene of a 17th-century warrior and a noble woman, accompanied by her chaperone wearing a yellow yukata,
as they enjoy the view of a waterfall on a summer day.
Known for his style that marks the transition from ukiyo-e to the shin-hanga movement, Toshikata captures the essence of the natural landscape with a touch of delicacy and realism. The artwork portrays the tranquility and picturesque
beauty of the visitors admiring the cascading waters, effectively blending traditional and modern artistic elements.
