Unknown children, birds

Two children in patterned kimono lean over a wooden veranda railing beneath a red-beamed eaves, gazing up at a black-and-red swallow in flight against a grey sky, with white paper streamers hanging from the roofline. To the left, green-leafed plants grow beside the veranda; round paper lanterns are visible inside the shaded interior at right. The palette is soft and muted — grey, teal, dusty pink, and indigo — giving the scene a quiet, rain-hazy mood. Woodblock print by Hiroshi Yoshida; title and year unrecorded.
