Hanahito of the Ogiya - Attractive portrait of the courtesan Hanahito of the Ogiya holding a decorated container topped with a printed cloth and tied with red cord. She smiles with delight as she contemplates the gift, supporting it delicately with her hand. Her hair is pulled back into a sleek bun adorned with many hairpins and a dark pink ribbon. A lovely design, rarely seen in reprint.
