沉醉在夏夜的晚风中，身着青花纹样衣装的姑娘露出两截皓月般的玉臂，轻捻帐钩，串起蚊帐的挂环，眼神专注，嘴角微带一丝笑意。一角被拎起的翠色蚊帐似乎是即将合上的帷幕，若隐若现的特性又使其增添了几分朦胧，留以观者无尽的遐想。
值得一提的是，本作虽历经近百年时光洗礼，色彩保存度却依然与新拓印的版画无二。姑娘脸颊上泛起的浅浅红晕，甚至都近未褪色分毫。“岁月从不败美人”，大抵就是如此。

Ito Shinsui (1898-1972）
Ito Shinsui is best known for his Shin Hanga portraits, often three-quarters, of beautiful women. But he produced several memorable, and memorably tonal, landscapes during his career.
Born in 1898 in a fast-modernizing Japan, he started work as a factory worker before his obvious talent got him promoted to the design department. Later, his paintings caught the eye of Watanabe Shozaburo, who added him to his roster of Shin Hanga stars. From this point on, beautiful women were almost Shinsui’s entire repetoire, although during World War II he did travel to Indonesia to produce designs depicting life there. His remarkable life spanned a tumultuous time indeed, and he died in 1972.
