"Okita of the Naniwa-ya Tea-house" (難波屋おきた) by Kitagawa Utamaro, 1790s.

Okita was a beautiful waitress at the Naniwaya tea-house near Asakusa Temple in the city of Edo.
Kitagawa Utamaro, famed for his art prints of beautiful women, created this print of her when she was only about fifteen years old.

In the upper left part of the print we can see a cartouche, with a poem by Katsura no Mayuzumi, describing the allure of Okita:
"Resting at the tea-house in Naniwaya district,
Myriad as the reeds of Naniwa Bay
Art those who come running at the name of this shop
Each passerby has to stop."
