Many ukiyo-e artists depicted bijinga (美人畫), pictures of ideal beauties who were often women of brothels of Yoshiwara quarter in Edo. Kitagawa Utamaro is perhaps the artist who pursued more than others the ideal of female beauty. In his well-known woodblock print Beauty in front of mirror in close-up we can see the neck hairline (項, unaji) which is one of women’s most attractive body parts. Kimono wraps the female body up and it uncovers nape and feet only.
