One cold shock of cobalt sits low in Yokugo no Onna (Woman After a Bath), the 1915 nude by Goyō Hashiguchi. A white-dappled tenugui, pressed tight near her feet, hovers over a lacquer tub the shade of pickled plum.

Through the late Meiji years he painted oils under Kuroda Seiki and designed book covers for Natsume Sōseki's novels. Edo print scholarship pulled him backward. With carvers bent over cherry blocks, he turned a woman crouched to wash into his first Japanese woodblock print and an early landmark of shin-hanga.

Her black chignon, pinned with a bone-pale comb, tips toward the chore. Soot swirls crowd her shoulder. A rust-orange post climbs into dove-gray wall. Folded on an olive ledge, a walnut-striped robe curls like a sleeping cat. 

Taishō-era Tokyo outside was clanging with electric trams. Inside, the bijin-ga beauty Utamaro once drew returns to an hour of skin and cool water that this Japanese art print keeps wet on your wall.

Origin Story

Goyō Hashiguchi (1880–1921) was the Japanese printmaker who ignited the shin-hanga revival of ukiyo-e in Taishō-era Japan. Born Kiyoshi in Kagoshima to a samurai painter, he trained in Kano-style brushwork before mastering Western oils at the Tokyo School of Fine Arts. Illustration work for Natsume Sōseki and a prizewinning Mitsukoshi poster sharpened his eye, but classical ukiyo-e claimed his devotion.

In 1915, publisher Watanabe Shōzaburō drew him into woodblock printing with Bathing, the movement's founding image. From 1918 he personally supervised carvers and printers, crafting luminous bijin-ga — women bathing, combing hair, powdering skin — alongside landscapes like Rain at Yabakei. Meningitis claimed him at forty, leaving fourteen masterworks that define shin-hanga's quiet intensity.
