A Collection of Flowers―Beautiful Women Compared
(Hana awase tosei bijin awase),
Publisher:
c. 1830s
This series likens contemporary beauties to different flowers. It is not listed in Kuniyoshi by Basil William Robinson (Victoria and Albert Museum, London, 1961). The prints are each about 14 by 10 inches (36 by 25 centimeters), a size known as ôban. I am grateful to Ward Pieters for assisting with this series.
