I like the artistry of the piece…. but to call it ” geisha” might not be correct in its dress. A true geisha would have a dresser to help her dress because the obe , the large tied sash around her waist is tied in the BACK! the only girls that would have their obe tied in the front would need to tie it themselves, having to tie it several times a night because they were prostitutes….. and NOT real Geisha. Real true Geisha were NOT prostitutes. but instead, performers of high caliber. FYI. HOWEVER, that doesnt mean that this portrait is not an excellent one. I very much like it, and would hang it in my home in a heart beat. Beautifully done! – Kevin
