This polychrome woodblock print by Torii Kiyonaga, titled "Cutting the Toenails; the Toilet after the Bath" offers a fascinating glimpse into 18th century Japan. The artist masterfully captures a moment of intimate daily life during the Edo period, showcasing his meticulous attention to detail and skill in ukiyo-e printing. In this scene, we witness a full-length depiction of two individuals engaged in personal grooming rituals. A young woman delicately tends to her feet while cutting her toenails, highlighting the importance placed on hygiene and self-care during this era. Her graceful posture and serene expression exude elegance and femininity. Adjacent to her stands a man, possibly an attendant or companion, observing her with curiosity.
