Facsimile of Woodblock for an illustrated Page of a Book by Keisai
A facsimile of a woodblock for an illustrated page of a book. The woodblock is rectangular with a dark border around the edge. The background of the block is beige with a textured surface. There are five illustrations of women in various poses. The top illustration shows two women sitting next to each other, one playing a drum. Below that, a woman sits cross-legged playing a stringed instrument while another woman sits next to her with a large bowl. In the middle, a woman reclines on her stomach with a fan. At the bottom, a woman reclines on her stomach with her hair in a bun. The style of the illustrations is simple, with minimal details.
