The exceptional wood cutting of the blocks to portray the intricacies of women’s hair was a Ukiyo-e tradition that Goyo had enthusiastically revived. The prints’ impact was enhanced by his restricted palette of a few primary colors. 

This piece was famously drawn on the first Macintosh by Susan Kare for marketing purposes.
