Judging from the woman’s hairstyle and the coordinated color scheme of her robes, which combine an astringent green kimono with a white-and-brown obi sash tied in a large bow at the back, she would seem to be not a courtesan or geisha but an ordinary townswoman. The careful detailing attests to Ōkyo’s devotion to shasei (drawing from nature). The artist is usually more closely associated with naturalistic depictions of fish and other animals, as seen in this exhibition, but he was also a student of human anatomy and left behind numerous drawings of human subjects and portraits.
