“我倾杯，您随意。”一身玄色和服的美人风姿绰约，脸蛋上的桃红，衬得她的笑意愈发灵动。背景上的方格看似折痕，实则是艺术家有意为之。不规整的剥落痕迹，为优雅的美人增添了几分旧时代的意趣。步入昭和期的日本，清酒酿造工业迈进新时代，先进的机械化设备大大提升了生产量与良品率，玻璃瓶装的清酒也成为主流。不如再替她斟上一杯吧，微醺的感觉，实在妙不可言。

本作出处清晰，流传有序。通过背面的印章可得知其曾为日本内务省旧藏，印章日期为昭和22年7月4日。就在盖印不到半年后，昭和22年（1947年）12月31日，设立逾七十载的内务省正式废止，作品因此流出市面。

Torii Kotondo (1900–1976)

Torii Kotondo followed his school's tradition of making prints of kabuki actors (yakusha-e) and involvement with commercial work for kabuki theater. His twenty-one bijin-ga (pictures of beautiful women) are particularly celebrated.

Torii Kiyotada IV, the seventh head of the Torii school of ukiyo-e artists, adopted Kotondo at age 15 and trained him in the school's specialty producing yakusha-e, portraits of kabuki actors. Kotondo studied painting under the yamato-e painter Kobori Tomone [ja] from 1914 and under Kiyokata Kaburagi from 1918. Most of Kotondo's woodblock prints date from 1927 to 1933.
