Painted in 1936, during the peak of his career, it depicts a young geiko smiling slightly at a woman&#8217;s whisper on a spring evening when cherry blossoms are falling. The expression, gestures, makeup technique, clothing, and hair tie are beautifully rendered, and one can sense Uemura Shoen&#8217;s aesthetic sense and ability to accurately depict the scene, making it one of the most popular works in the Matsuoka Museum of Art&#8217;s Japanese painting collection. There is also a cherry tree in the courtyard, and if you visit in late March, you can appreciate the masterpieces while viewing the cherry blossoms. <\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" height=\"57\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/assets\/images\/obj-illust_27.png\" title=\"\" width=\"199\"><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"js-way\"><span class=\"ja\"><span>Event Summary<\/span><\/span><span class=\"en\">Outline<\/span><\/h3>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<th>Location<\/th>\n<td>\nMatsuoka Museum of Art 5-12-6 Shirokanedai, Minato-ku, Tokyo<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"row\">Access<\/th>\n<td>\n7 minutes from Shirokanedai Station on the Tokyo Metro Namboku Line and Toei Subway Mita Line, 15 minutes from Meguro Station on the JR Yamanote Line<\/p>\n<div class=\"elem-sec_01 mrg-style_21\">\n<iframe allowfullscreen=\"\" height=\"350\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/maps.google.co.jp\/maps?output=embed&#038;q=35.64003475594279,139.72197961474956&#038;z=15\" style=\"border:0;\" width=\"100%\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"row\">Holding period<\/th>\n<td>\nTuesday, February 21, 2023 &#8211; Sunday, June 4, 2023<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"row\">Opening Hours<\/th>\n<td>\n10:00-17:00 (last admission 16:30), open until 19:00 on the first Friday only (last admission 18:30)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"row\">Contact Us<\/th>\n<td>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t03-5449-0251\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"row\">admission fee<\/th>\n<td>\n1,200 yen, 500 yen for 25 years old and younger, free for high school students and younger and those with disabilities<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"row\">closed day<\/th>\n<td>\nMondays (or the following weekday if the Monday is a national holiday)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"row\">Related Links<\/th>\n<td>\n<a class=\"link-style_03\" href=\"https:\/\/www.matsuoka-museum.jp\/contents\/7542\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Official Site<\/a> <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Holding period 2023.02.21 \u301c 2023.06.04 Beautiful people&#8221; regardless of gender or age The term &#8220;bijinga&#8221; (portraits of beautiful women) became popular as a general term after the Meiji period.
