This precious album, meticulously replicated by the Museum of Modern Japanese Literature, was originally created in 1891 and stands as the most atmospheric and evocative masterpiece by the famous French satirical cartoonist and printmaker, Georges Bigot. Having lived in Japan for seventeen years during the Meiji period, Bigot was renowned not only for his biting political cartoons but also for his incredibly tender, flowing lines that documented the local customs and people of Japan at the time. Through a series of sketches and etchings, this book delicately captures a full day in the life of a Tokyo geisha—from waking up in the early morning, dressing and applying makeup, practicing the shamisen, and entering the softly lit evening banquets, to finally returning home late at night.
