Description from the seller

歌まくら・くやしい
Another picture of Utamaro's "Utamakura" series, and found most well preserved
when this series was discovered.
The very uniqueness of this picture is its composition lacking the face of the subject woman. In an upstair room of a restaurant overlooking the Shinobazu Pond, a young samurai warrior, seemingly tired of an uneventful daily life in a "peaceful" society, tries to find moments of excitement in sharing sensual pleasures with a geisha, who twists her body in a gesture of the contemporary mood at that time of Edo.

歌まくら・料亭の二階
Utamaro's pornographic pictures are hard to come by. This is one of them.
A prostitute in the gay town of Nezu was one night visited by her most beloved
"patron."
She noticed a roll of paper (letter) in his chest pocket, gets it out against
his opposition, and starts reading it. A love letter from another woman! "How vexatious! " cries she.
She is, however, a doll-like beauty, and she tries to suppress her anger under the
maternalistic cloak.

Type : woodblock prints, Ukiyo-e
