The Tale of Genji,written in Japan in the early years of the 11th Century is probably the first surviving novel. We don't know the name of the female author, despite also having her diaries.She is known to posterity as Murasaki Shikibu after the heroine of her epic novel. I have depicted her by the standards of beauty of her time. She has a round face and long flowing hair. She has also shaved her eyebrows and painted soft smudgy 'bufferfly' brows much higher up her forehead. She would also have blackened her teeth. Her words are radiating out in wispy tendrils from her hand. Marbled paper collage.
