This striking scene portrays Jigoku Dayū, the legendary “Hell Courtesan,” gazing into a mirror held by a child attendant as Enma, the king of hell, watches nearby. Featured in Volume 1 of the series, the print reflects Kyōsai’s fascination with folklore, satire, and the supernatural. Renowned for his eccentric imagination and expressive brushwork, Kyōsai remains one of the most celebrated and unconventional artists of the Meiji era.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Please look at the prints closely since there is some insect damage (Japanese Deathwatch Beetle) that has been restored with Edo era paper and archival tape. The prints are not backed or glued. Due to the thin paper, I suggest putting the pages on a white background in order to show the print the best. \u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mie Gallery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43732047495246,"sku":"mg1736","price":65.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0095\/7602\/2094\/files\/mg1736-Kyosai-Kyosai-Gadan-japanese-woodblock-print.jpg?v=1778268360","url":"https:\/\/miegallery.com\/products\/mg1736-kyosai-kyosai-gadan-japanese-woodblock-print","provider":"Mie Gallery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
