Keisai Eisen (渓斎 英泉, 1790–1848) was a Japanese ukiyo-e artist who specialised in bijin-ga (pictures of beautiful women). His best works, including his ōkubi-e ("large head pictures"), are considered to be masterpieces of the "decadent" Bunsei Era (1818–1830). He was also known as Ikeda Eisen, and wrote under the name of Ippitsuan.
Kōjien defines bijin-ga as a picture that simply "emphasizes the beauty of women", [1] and the Shincho Encyclopedia of World Art defines it as depiction of "the beauty of a woman's appearance". [2] On the other hand, Gendai Nihon Bijin-ga Zenshū Meisaku-sen I defines bijin-ga as pictures that explore "the inner beauty of women". [3]

Victoria Woodhull was the first woman to run for president in the U.S. and she made her historic run in 1872 – before women even had the right to vote! She supported women's suffrage as well as welfare for the poor, and though it was frowned upon at the time, she didn't shy away from being vocal about sexual freedom.
