Original Description
Woman Combing Her Hair by Goyo Hashiguchi (1920) is a mesmerizing shin-hanga masterpiece that epitomizes the refined elegance of early 20th-century Japanese woodblock prints. The composition immerses viewers in an intimate moment—a lone woman, draped in a translucent kimono, pauses mid-gesture as she arranges her lustrous black hair. Hashiguchi’s delicate linework and muted palette of creams, grays, and soft pinks evoke a sense of quiet solitude, while the play of fabric folds and negative space reveals his mastery of ukiyo-e traditions reinterpreted through modern sensibilities. Revered as one of Hashiguchi’s final works before his untimely death, this print bridges the gap between Edo-period craftsmanship and Taisho-era sophistication, cementing its status as a pinnacle of shin-hanga ("new prints")—a movement that revitalized Japanese printmaking for Western collectors. Its restrained eroticism and psychological depth distinguish it from more decorative contemporaries, offering a timeless meditation on femininity and introspection.
For interior styling, this artwork thrives in serene, minimalist spaces that honor its contemplative mood. Ideal for a bedroom vanity nook, a spa-like bathroom, or a muted-toned office, it pairs beautifully with clean-lined Shaker furniture or mid-century teak accents. Frame it in a slim black or natural wood kumiko-lattice frame to echo its Japanese roots, and hang it at eye level (approx. 60" from the floor) to replicate the intimate scale of traditional kakemono scrolls. Complement its soft hues with tactile neutrals—linen upholstery, stoneware vases, or a wabi-sabi clay sculpture—while avoiding bold patterns that might compete with its subtlety. A limited-edition reproduction (original sizes hover around 40×26 cm) works well above a low console or as part of a tonal gallery wall alongside other shin-hanga prints like Hasui Kawase’s landscapes. For lighting, opt for diffuse, warm-toned LEDs to mimic the glow of paper lanterns, enhancing the print’s delicate gradations without glare.
