Description

A green kimono patterned with a diamond-and-dot motif at the shoulders and abstracted landscape-like curves below hangs on a pale kimono rack against a solid black background, with a maroon garment in an angular, faceted pattern draped over a second rack in the foreground at right. No human figures appear; the composition is symmetrical and graphic, with the pale rack frame contrasting sharply against the deep black ground. This mezzotint by Katsunori Hamanishi, titled *Kimono No.2*, is undated.
