Original Description
In A Girl Combing Her Hair (1920), Goyo Hashiguchi captures an intimate moment of quiet elegance, embodying the refined beauty of shin-hanga (new prints) revival in early 20th-century Japan. The artwork depicts a young woman in a tilted pose, her kimono slipping slightly off her shoulders as she combs her long, dark hair with delicate concentration. Hashiguchi's mastery of line and texture—evident in the intricate patterns of the fabric and the luminous sheen of her hair—elevates this scene into a poetic study of femininity and grace. Unlike ukiyo-e’s bold theatricality, Goyo’s subdued palette (creamy whites, muted pinks, and soft blacks) and precise detailing reflect his adherence to bijin-ga (images of beautiful women) while infusing Western naturalism. This print, created just before his death, remains iconic for bridging traditional Japanese woodblock techniques with modernist sensitivity, securing his legacy as a pivotal shin-hanga artist.
For a sophisticated yet serene interior, A Girl Combing Her Hair would harmonize beautifully in a minimalist study, spa-like bedroom, or boutique office. Choose a matted frame in warm blonde wood or a slim black lacquer to complement the artwork’s subtle tones. Hang it at eye level (standard 57" from the floor) above a console table with a single ceramic vase or beside a reading nook with neutral linen upholstery. The print’s intimate scale (typical ōban size, ~15 × 10 in) suits smaller walls or grouped with other shin-hanga works in a gallery arrangement. Echo its palette through blush cushions, pale oak furniture, or tatami-inspired textures to create cohesion. Avoid cluttering the space—let the artwork’s quiet grace anchor the room’s ambiance. In corporate settings, pair it with clean-lined desks and soft lighting to evoke refined tranquility.
