Artwork designed and digitally remastered by Sarasvati Designs. The artwork titled "Courtesan (after Eisen)" is a painting by the famous Dutch Post-Impressionist artist Vincent van Gogh. It is an adaptation of a woodcut created by the Japanese artist Kesai Eisen, originally reproduced on the cover of Paris illustré in 1886. Van Gogh used a grid to copy and enlarge the Japanese figure, resulting in a piece that pays homage to both traditional Japanese art and his own distinctive style. The courtesan's identity is emphasized by traditional cues such as her hairstyle, attire, and the front-tied obi. Van Gogh enriches the scene with symbolic elements including water lilies, bamboo, cranes, and frogs—references to French slang linking these animals to courtesans. This work beautifully merges Japanese influence with Van Gogh's expressive color and line work.
