Tei Ran (Ding Lan)

A woman in a pale blue kimono patterned with dark blue foliage, its underlayer showing deep red and gold accents, stands beside a red lacquered stand in an interior with sliding paper doors; a rounded fan and a small statuette on a red table are nearby, while a rainy landscape with trees is visible through an open panel behind her. A narrow inset panel above shows two seated figures on a dais and two robed men conversing beside a shoreline, framed by a decorative red and green border with Japanese text. Woodblock print by Toyohara Chikanobu, 1890, titled Tei Ran (Ding Lan).
