Courtesan by Kaigetsudo Doshin is a notable example of ukiyo-e, a genre of Japanese woodblock prints that flourished during the Edo period (1603–1868). Created by the artist Kaigetsudo Doshin, who was active in the early 18th century, this work is part of a series of prints that depict the life and fashions of courtesans in the Yoshiwara pleasure district of Edo (modern-day Tokyo). Kaigetsudo Doshin was a prominent member of the Kaigetsudo school, which is known for its distinctive style characterized by bold lines, vivid colors, and the portrayal of voluptuous female figures in full-length portraits.

The print "Courtesan" exemplifies the Kaigetsudo style through its composition and use of color. It features a courtesan, a woman who was both an entertainer and a professional companion, dressed in an elaborate kimono with intricate patterns that reflect her high status within the pleasure quarters. The courtesan's pose and expression are poised and elegant, capturing the idealized beauty and sophistication associated with these women.

As a work of art, "Courtesan" by Kaigetsudo Doshin is significant for its artistic merit and as a cultural artifact that provides insight into the urban culture of Edo Japan. It reflects the interests and tastes of the chonin, or townspeople, who were the primary audience for ukiyo-e prints. The print is also valuable for the study of Japanese fashion history, as it documents the elaborate styles of the time.

The Kaigetsudo school's prints, including those by Doshin, were influential in the development of ukiyo-e and continue to be appreciated for their aesthetic qualities and historical importance. "Courtesan" by Kaigetsudo Doshin is held in various art collections around the world and remains an important piece for scholars and enthusiasts of Japanese art.
