About the piece

Created in 1906 by Japanese master Fujishima Takeji, this oil-on-canvas portrait is a hallmark of the Yoga movement, blending Western techniques with Japanese sensibility. The painting captures a European sitter with expressive, painterly brushstrokes, contrasting the warmth of her auburn hair and red wrap against a dark, atmospheric ground that adds depth and timelessness to the composition.
