A manga-styled woman, drawn with Renaissance artistic techniques, set against a backdrop that shows two contrasting worlds. On one side, there's a modern office setting with elements of corporate Japan, and on the other side, a traditional Japanese home. The woman is caught in the middle, torn between these two worlds. Her attire blends traditional kimono elements with a modern business suit. The color palette is inspired by Renaissance art, but the imagery and tension in the scene speak to the gender norms discussed in the article, creating a visually striking contrast.
