Description
A young woman stands in profile, holding out a length of pale kimono fabric patterned with butterflies and flowers in pink, green, and blue, which contrasts with the dark navy floral kimono she wears. She stands on tatami matting before a patterned wall hanging and a paper lantern, her hair dressed in a traditional upswept style. Hashiguchi Goyō's 1920 woodblock print *Young Woman in Summer Kimono (natsu yosoi no musume)* uses a muted, warm palette of indigo, rose, and ochre tones.
