Ceremony of adulthood, Totoya Hokkei, c. 1822 Canvas Print
A young vrwou sits in front of her mirror to shave her eyebrows. Japanese women used to sing their eyebrows, blacken their teeth and raise their hair after getting married. With three poems. The prints from this series are in line with the belief that the first activities of the new year were extra special. The red cartouche on the prints refers to almanacs in which it was indicated which activities could or should not be undertaken on certain days by people born in a certain year.
