Description
A woman in a red kimono patterned with small white lozenges and a green under-collar decorated with white chrysanthemums is shown half-length against a plain grey background, her shoulder bared and a hairpin visible in her upswept black hair. She looks down at a black hand mirror with a gold decorative motif, held in her left hand, while her right hand, wearing a ring, is raised toward her collarbone holding a small red-and-black applicator.
