Bordeelbezoeker met courtisane
A brothel client, annoyed that his appointment with a high-ranking courtesan has been cancelled, throws himself onto a lower-ranking trainee courtesan. The beautifully flowing lines of this image, reminiscent of brushstrokes, almost make you forget that this is a woodblock print. This image comes from a series of twelve prints entitled Shikido juniban (Twelve Holds in the Way of Sex).
