THREE BEAUTIES by UTAMARO serigraph print

Utamaro (1753-1806) is considered to have established the golden age of Ukiyo-e printing. He often depicted women — from mothers with babies to courtesans — in their comfortable and tranquil domiciles. He alone, of his contemporary ukiyo-e artists, achieved a national reputation during his lifetime. His sensuous female beauties generally are considered the finest and most evocative bijinga in all of ukiyo-e. He succeeded in capturing subtle aspects of personality and transient moods of women of all classes, ages, and circumstances. His reputation has remained undiminished since. His work is known worldwide, and he is generally regarded as one of the half-dozen greatest ukiyo-e artists of all time.
