 Geishas & Japanese Beauties 2008 Wall Calendar | Geishas & Japanese Beauties Calendar : Wall : 2008The Geishas & Japanese Beauties wall calendar is an elegant presentation of the genre of “bijinga” (prints of beautiful women) that evolved in early twentieth century Japan. Bijinga prints depicted everyday women; waitresses, geishas and courtesans, rather than the more formal representations created for the aristocracy and royalty. Bijinga prints celebrate the Japanese ideals of beauty and femininity and uniquely capture this time in history. These twelve bijinga beauties have been carefully assembled from the Zentner Collection which has been dealing in Asian antiques for more than twenty-five years. This 2008 calendar is produced by Amber Lotus in the category Geisha calendars. | ||
 The Art of the Geisha 2008 Wall Calendar | The Art of the Geisha Calendar : Wall : 2008Geisha. The word alone conjures images of Old Japan. Geisha are women who are first and foremost artists. Far from the Western image of a frail beauty willing to fulfill a man's every whim, these outspoken women are entertainers whose accomplishments include dance, traditional music, tea ceremony, sparkling conversation and a thorough knowledge of current events. Geishas are actresses in a mysterious, private theater performed behind the walls of lavish tea houses and restaurants, virtually unchanged for two hundred years. They are the keepers of Japan's precious cultural heritage, quickly vanishing in the modern world. This calendar brings to life the images of the geisha through portraits from the 18th, 19th, and 20th centuries by immortal artist such as Ito Shinsui, Kitagawa Utamaro, Hashiguchi Goyo, and Keisai Eisen This 2008 calendar is produced by Sellers Publishing in the category Geisha calendars. | ||
