Ryūsei Kishida (岸田劉生) was a Japanese painter during the Taishō and Shōwa periods. He is best known for his realistic yōga-style (aka Western-style or 洋画) portraiture, but also for his nihonga (Japanese-style or 日本画) paintings in the 1920s. This 1913 portrait depicts his wife, Shigeru Kobayashi. In 1912, an exhibition of young painters influenced by Post-Impressionism was held in Ginza, Tokyo which included hometown artist Kishida who exhibited 14 works, including "Cloudy Day" and "Self-portrait." At the time, Kobayashi, who was studying under the Japanese painter Kiyokata Kaburagi, came to the venue and was impressed by Kishida's work. Before long, they started writing to each other, and the two got married in July of the following year, 1913. As Kishida’s wife, and as a model who responded to his sometimes unusual requests, Shigeru became a good companion who supported Kishida's life and art. Her facial features are soft, with dark almond-shaped eyes, a straight nose with a bump, and a gentle curve to her mouth. Her face is oval-shaped with strong bone structure and a skin tone that is light to medium. Her hair is long, dark, and appears to have a smooth, slightly wavy texture, styled in a way that falls past her shoulders. She is wearing a dark-colored deep purple, long-sleeved robe with small light-colored dots. The fabric appears to be heavy and substantial. Her expression is serene. She appears to be at ease, with her hands resting gently at her chest and her posture is straight and relaxed.

Japanese artist Okada Saburosuke (岡田三郎助) won first prize at the 1907 Tokyo Industrial Exhibition (東京勧業博覧会) for this painting, which initially was entitled Study in Purple (紫調べ), a reference to the purple cords that lace the drum. The beautiful young woman, wearing a red Genroku-style kimono (元禄風の着物) with beautiful patterns and her long black hair up in a chignon knot, seems about to strike a tsuzumi (鼓) hand drum. In the background is a Rimpa-style (琳派風) folding screen with a design of fringed pinks and flowing water. This painting was commissioned by Takahashi Yoshio (高橋義雄), who was in management for the Mitsukoshi Kimono Store (三越呉服店) which had touched off the Genroku (元禄模様) motif boom. The subject is Takahashi's wife, Chiyoko (千代子), a tea practitioner who was also involved in the management of the store. At the time this painting was completed, Takashi was engaged in modernizing Mitsukoshi and, aiming at a contemporary revival of traditional motifs, was working out a plan to focus particularly on motifs from the mid-Edo Genroku era. The painting was used in a poster throughout Japan for the Mitsukoshi’s Spring New Pattern Show. It's popularity later led it to be used as a postage stamp.
