Sketch of a Woman with a Battledore - Tsukioka Yoshitoshi Art Print
About the Wall Art
Fine Art Prints

Forget cheap reproductions and printable posters. Only the best will do.
Velvety matte fine art paper (warm white, archival-grade, 200gsm) with bold, vibrant, non-toxic pigment inks. High-definition print lab techniques give you sharper details, deeper saturation and true-to-life tones. While the matte surface keeps glare down and archival-grade materials mean the colors you fall for stay vivid for decades.
Framed Fine Art Prints

Your print arrives framed and ready to hang, so it goes straight from the box to your wall.
Chevron cut wooden frames make a timeless statement in three distinctive colors: black, white and natural. Each frame is made of sustainably sourced FSC® certified knotless pine. And your artwork is protected behind ultra-clear perspex glaze that’s lighter than glass and shatter-resistant.
Float Framed Canvas Prints

Luscious artist-grade cotton canvas, hand-stretched and finely textured, gives every detail depth and precision, catching light and color with striking clarity. While a precisely measured floating frame leaves a slim gap around the canvas, so it seems to hover with a sleek, gallery-worthy effect. Finished with your choice of frame color — black, white or natural — made from sustainably sourced FSC® certified knotless pine.
Giclée Printing

Forget 4 color CMYK. Giclée layers up to 12 — alive with deeper shadows, richer highlights and multidimensional contrasts. Pro-lab printing process helps art stay bold & breathtaking for up to 100 years. And the neo-pigment, water-based inks are 100% non-hazardous and toxin-free.
About the Artwork
Her hair has no color yet. Tsukioka Yoshitoshi drew only its outline, a tall coiffure of looped side-locks crowned by a scalloped comb tinted pale slate. Ukiyo-e designers often stopped there. Cutting every strand fell to the master carver and his cherry woodblock.
So this sheet catches a picture halfway to being born. Sketch of a Woman with a Battledore is a late nineteenth-century brush drawing from the years Edo gave way to Meiji Japan. Short combed strokes mark her hairline. A watery rose blush pools at her temple, and her mouth is one bright dab of fuchsia.
Then the collars. Doubled lines stack at her throat, layers of New Year kimono drawn with a loaded brush that splits and dries mid-stroke. An obi bow juts from her back. And the hagoita she carries is blank too. Fancy holiday paddles wore padded-silk portraits of kabuki stars. Hers waits bare, a flat board shaped like an unprinted page.
Yoshitoshi trained under Utagawa Kuniyoshi and became the last great name in ukiyo-e. This late nineteenth-century bijin-ga ink drawing shows his hand before any woodblock came near. Hang this Japanese ink drawing art print by a cold window and wait for the shuttlecock to drop. This Yoshitoshi beauty stays forever unfinished and all the more beautiful for it.
