Description
A crowded public bathhouse pool packed with numerous bathers' heads clustered together above the waterline, seen from an elevated interior angle; a single standing figure wrapped in a towel looks on near the doorway. The scene is rendered in flat, angular shapes in muted sage green, tan, and grey-brown, with a wooden lattice window, a shoe-cubby rack, and a diamond-patterned floor filling out the room. Print titled "Itamuro" by Maekawa Senpan, woodblock print, year unknown.
