One of the Hiratsuka’s iconic stylized female figures, rendered with serene restraint and quiet symbolism. The woman’s simplified, mask-like face is framed by dark hair and a small golden crown set delicately atop her head. Her raised hands and gently parted lips suggest contemplation or ritual, while a circular medallion bearing a fish motif rests at her chest, introducing an additional layer of symbolic meaning.
