japanese Beauties ("Bijin-ga")
To collectors and admirers of Japanese woodblock prints, prints of Japanese beauties ("bijin-ga") are perhaps only second in popularity to Japanese landscapes. And deserved so--perhaps no other group of artists has better captured the essence of feminine beauty over the centries than have Japanese artists.
Tatsumi Shimura - 1907-1980
Before the war Tatsumi Shimura had worked for a woman's magazine. After the war he designed several prints of beautiful women. The women of his prints look very fashionable, trendy, beautiful and cute - with big eyelashes and a sensual lipstick mouth.
