Original Description
Goyo Hashiguchi's Woman after the Bath (1915) is a mesmerizing shin-hanga woodblock print that captures the quiet intimacy of a private moment. The composition depicts a nude woman kneeling on a woven mat, her body glowing with warmth as she delicately towels her hair. Hashiguchi’s refined linework reveals both anatomical precision and poetic softness—notice how the light caresses her shoulders while indigo shadows define the folds of fabric beneath her. As a leading figure of Japan’s early 20th-century "new prints" movement, Hashiguchi blended ukiyo-e traditions with Western realism, elevating scenes of daily life into timeless art. This particular work revolutionized bijin-ga (beautiful women) prints by rejecting overt eroticism in favor of dignified naturalism. Its limited-edition status and the artist’s untimely death soon after completion have cemented its reputation as a jewel of Japanese printmaking.
For display, this piece thrives in serene, contemplative spaces. Hang it against earthy walls—think Farrow & Ball’s "Parisian Pink" or a muted sage—to complement its warm ochre and slate-blue palette. A slim black frame with a handmade washi matting echoes traditional Japanese presentation. Ideal for a bedroom alcove or a spa-like bathroom (protected from humidity by museum glass), its intimate 40x30cm scale invites close viewing. Pair with minimalist wood furniture and a single ikebana arrangement to honor Hashiguchi’s "less is more" aesthetic. In offices, position it where natural light mimics the print’s glow, perhaps beside a low leather chair to create a meditative corner. Avoid busy patterns nearby; let its rhythmic drapery lines and skin textures command attention as they did in Edo-period tea houses.
