在众多的美人画中，你都能见到一圈环绕在和服交领处的黑边——黑衿。旧时代，平民女性的和服套数并不多，清洗步骤也较为繁琐。为了尽可能避免污损，她们发挥聪明才智，在领口至衣襟这一最易粘上油渍等污垢的部位装上了一层可拆洗的黑色布料，在充分发挥实用价值的同时，也尽可能地保持了优雅得体。现代和服上的挂襟，起到的也正是与之相似的作用。
年轻的姑娘将一头乌发绾成银杏返式样，身着一袭黑衿缟纹和装，正对镜欣赏着妆容。单看如雪的颈颔，就已足够楚楚动人，更不消说镜中的凝脂点漆。朵朵粉樱绽放在肩头，黑衿碧玉小家女，亦使人见之忘俗。

Ito Shinsui (1898-1972）
Ito Shinsui is best known for his Shin Hanga portraits, often three-quarters, of beautiful women. But he produced several memorable, and memorably tonal, landscapes during his career.
Born in 1898 in a fast-modernizing Japan, he started work as a factory worker before his obvious talent got him promoted to the design department. Later, his paintings caught the eye of Watanabe Shozaburo, who added him to his roster of Shin Hanga stars. From this point on, beautiful women were almost Shinsui’s entire repetoire, although during World War II he did travel to Indonesia to produce designs depicting life there. His remarkable life spanned a tumultuous time indeed, and he died in 1972.
