Légende
Portrait of a Woman, 1800s. During the 1700s and 1800s, wearing iridescent, greenish lip gloss was in vogue. Also, Japanese women almost universally practiced the custom of artificially blackening their teeth with a stain. This woman wears a tortoiseshell comb and hairpins. A Kyoto-based painter, Seitoku specialized in portraying women from the Gion, the licensed brothel district in Kyoto. He was known for detailing faces with subtle modeling to heighten a sense of realism.
