左大臣時平公(収載資料名:豊国画帖)

豊国 · 1860 · 1 picture

A Japanese woodblock print from 1860 by Toyokuni, a single portrait plate from a picture album (ehon) collection, showing a court figure in a grey patterned robe. The image shows a stylised face with a tall black lacquered hairpiece and a blue-black background scattered with falling petals; a designer might take its flat colour blocks, wave-patterned fabric and rhythmic outlines.
