Woodblock print by Toshijiro Inagaki, Lattice and Ohara Women, Framed / no.2671

Oharame (female peddlers) in the streets of Kyoto, carrying brushwood on their heads. They were often seen from the Heian period to the Taisho period when electricity and gas became common. It is said that the Oharame's clothing dates back to the Heian period, when the Awa no Naishi (female court lady) who served Kenreimon'in, who lived peacefully at Jakkoin Temple, wore clothes while working in the mountains.

The work of Japanese dyeing and weaving artist Inagaki Toshijiro (1902-1963) has been printed by Mikumo Woodblock Print Company.

In general woodblock prints, different blocks are used depending on the color to be printed, but in Mikumo Woodblock Prints, the paint is applied to a single block in different places and the colors are printed over and over again. This technique expresses the nuances of Inagaki Toshijiro's style and playfulness.
