Chinese Beauty

Kubo Shunman’s ‘Chinese Beauty’ is a hanging scroll from the late 1700s to early 1800s. It uses ink and color on silk. The Edo period artist often worked in this medium.

The painting is part of the Cleveland Museum of Art’s collection, classified under the Japanese Edo period. It represents a cultural exchange between China and Japan.

Kubo Shunman was an artist and writer known for ukiyo-e prints and paintings. He also produced gesaku novels, kyōka, and haiku poetry.
