Kiyokata Kaburaki's "Asasuzu" (Morning Coolness) is a realistic bijin-ga (beautiful woman painting) from the Taisho era, depicting a young girl walking in a summer morning landscape. It was created based on everyday life when Kiyokata was taking a walk with his eldest daughter at his villa in Kanazawa (present-day Yokohama). The work beautifully harmonizes the depiction of nature and the beauty of a woman, and it is an important piece that led to his later masterpiece, "Tsukiji Akashi-cho," born from Kiyokata's own attempts at new expression.
