This is an original Japanese ukiyo-e period woodblock print illustrating a refined genre scene from traditional Japanese life.
The composition depicts two women dressed in traditional Japanese garments. One woman is shown kneeling while holding an object resembling a scroll, suggesting learning, correspondence, or formal presentation. The second woman stands or sits nearby holding a book, reinforcing the theme of education, literature, or cultured domestic life. Together, the figures convey a quiet, intimate moment associated with intellectual and cultural refinement.
Executed using the traditional ukiyo-e woodblock printing technique, the print features elegant line work and a balanced arrangement characteristic of late Edo period genre scenes. Such works were widely appreciated for portraying women’s education, etiquette, and everyday cultural practices, serving both artistic and documentary purposes.
