Scope and Contents:
The collection consists of a silk-covered accordian book of thirteen (13) color woodcut prints from the series "Brocade Pictures from the Capital". This series of designs was commissioned by the Japanese department store Mitsui in 1898 and published by Akiyama Buemon (Kokkeidō). The prints were re-issued in 1905-06. The prints in this collection have English titles and appear to date from 1905-1906. In twelve images, women and girls are shown in different surroundings and activities, dressed according to the season. The title page contains an image of the table of contents written on an open notebook wth a basket of various flowers in the background.

Biographical / Historical:
Toshikata Mizuno (1866-108) was a painter and illustrator best known for genre subjects treated in a modified ukiyo-e manner with Shijō style. Toshikata was born in Edo (Tokyo) and began his study of ukiyo-e at the age of fourteen. In 1887, he joined the newspaper Yamato shinbun as an illustrator. He also produced several lithographs for the literary magazine Shinshosetsu and senso-e (war prints) during the Sino-Japanese war. In 1900 he organized a group of painter friends, called Ugōkai, and aimed at improving the art of ukiyo-e. Toshikata died in Tokyo in April 1908.
