Description
A woman with an elaborate black coiffure, decorated with pale floral hair ornaments and a red hair accessory, is shown from behind and turned partly in profile, her face powdered white in the traditional manner. She wears a pale kimono patterned with small florals and vines that is largely obscured by a black outer robe bearing a bold pattern of interlocking hexagonal medallions filled with gold and rust-toned floral motifs, cinched by a black obi with a small gold crest. The background is a mottled gold field speckled with white, dappled marks; this woodblock print by Miyamoto Shufu is untitled and undated.
