Notes

↑ Cassatt owned a copy of Utamaro's Takashima Ohisa Using Two Mirrors to Observe Her Coiffure (now also in the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston) but her copy has faded badly and a better example today is this one in the Spaulding Collection at the same museum (but it too has faded).^[1]
↑ The subjects Kintarô and Yamauba belong to Japanese folklore.
