"New Women for a New Age" surveys the changing image of Japanese women in prints, illustrations and photographs made in Japan from the 1890s to the 1930s, when traditional notions of ideal beauty and behavior intermingled with imported styles and concepts. The exhibition is now on view in our Japanese Print Gallery! Pictured: "Woman Looking at a Mirror," 1916, Itō Shinsui.
