• Uemura Shōen (1875–1949) was a Japanese painter active from the Meiji to Showa periods, and a leading figure in the field of bijin-ga (portraits of beautiful women). Born in Kyoto, he continued to paint pure and elegant female figures based on the Shijō school style. His representative works, Introductory Dance and Mother and Child, delicately express women's inner thoughts and emotions. He established a solid position in the male-dominated art world, and in 1948 he became the first woman to receive the Order of Culture. His style, which embodies truth, goodness and beauty, continues to fascinate many people today.

• Uemura Shōen's "Shunbō" is a portrait of a young woman, likely the daughter of a merchant's household in the Edo period, set against the backdrop of plum blossoms, a symbol of spring. Her hair is tied in a gingko-gaeshi style, and she is wearing an elegant embroidered kimono. Her quiet appearance exudes inner grace and elegance. The soft light and gentle atmosphere of spring are expressed through the subdued colors and delicate brushwork, and this work conveys Shōen's unique quiet and profound beauty.

High-definition art painting (hand-colored complementary colors)

The work is printed on a Shin-ken-bon (High quality printing paper) using cutting-edge giclee printing techniques adopted by famous art museums around the world to produce replicas, and the final finish is hand-colored with complementary colors to create a realistic look. It is weather-resistant and not easily decomposed by light or ozone in the air, so the color tone is less likely to change over time and the beauty will not change.
