Description
A woman in a floral kimono stands on a wooden veranda, sliding a paper screen door open with one hand as she looks out toward a misty river landscape with low hills in the distance. A dark bird is visible in flight against the pale sky over the water. The palette is muted — soft grays and blue-grays in the landscape against the woman's patterned pink, blue, and white kimono. Woodblock print, "Maple," by Ogata Gekko.
