説明:
The print depicts the reflection of a beauty using two mirrors (kagami and awasekagami) in order to apply powder to the nape of her neck. The wrapper beneath the mirror shows the name of the powder, “Bien-senjoko.” This scented make-up powder, which could be applied to both face and neck, became the leading brand for the Sakamoto store from around 1820. As part of the advertising campaign the name appeared in numerous prints and novels and was thereby associated with the major idols of the day. The name of the powder was inspired by the famous kabuki female role actor (onnagata) Segawa Kikunojo III (1751-1810) whose nickname was Senjo Roko.
