Yuki Nagayoshi
Yuki Nagayoshi is an extremely talented illustrator. The inspiration
of her artwork comes from the early 20th century (1910-1930). Her sensitive,
intelligent and compassionate work tells the ironic story of Bijinga
or beauty of women in Japanese society. On the one hand feminine beauty was
portrayed as an innocent flower, while at the same time, women were
treated brutally in a sexist Japan. You can see her most recent work
in the Japanese section of her home page.
