Description
Two women stand close together in profile and near-profile, the figure in front in a mustard-and-brown geometric-patterned kimono with a dark blue obi patterned in orange leaves, her hair in a high bound updo, eyes downcast, holding a metal implement at her sash; behind her a second woman in a solid mauve robe with a checked collar, hair swept into a dark bun pinned with a yellow ornament, holds a pink rose against her sleeve with a red cord looped over her wrist. Both figures are rendered in flat color against a plain undyed paper ground, with a small red seal at the lower right. Woodblock print, ink and color on paper, by Kajita Hanko; year unknown.
