Product Description

The Geishas & Japanese Beauties 2008 wall calendar is an elegant presentation of the genre of bijinga (prints of beautiful women) that evolved in early twentieth century Japan. Bijinga prints depicted everyday women: waitresses, geishas and courtesans, rather than the more formal representations created for the aristocracy and royalty. Bijinga prints celebrate the Japanese ideals of beauty and femininity and uniquely capture this time in history. These twelve bijinga beauties have been carefully assembled from the Zentner Collection which has been dealing in Asian antiques for more than twenty-five years.
