Description

The design shows a Maiko. Maikos were apprentice geishas and as such were trained in art forms intended for entertainment, such as dance and music.

Condition notes

The print is a first edition, in very good condition. There are a few small imperfections, visible on the images, of which a very small spot on the lower cheek is the most significant one. The upper border of the paper shows some black, but well clear of the image. A number has been written in pencil on the verso.
