Japan: The model Tomi after a bath. Hashiguchi Goyo (1880-1921).

Hashiguchi Goyo was an artist of the Shin Hanga movement. Shin hanga ('new prints') was an art movement in early 20th-century Japan, during the Taish_ and Sh_wa periods, that revitalized traditional ukiyo-e art rooted in the Edo and Meiji periods (17thÐ19th century). The movement flourished from around 1915 to 1942, though it resumed briefly from 1946 through the 1950s. Inspired by European Impressionism, the artists incorporated Western elements such as the effects of light and the expression of individual moods, but focused on strictly traditional themes of landscapes (fukeiga), famous places (meish_), beautiful women (bijinga), kabuki actors (yakusha-e), and birds and flowers (kach_ga).
