Description
A young woman is shown in profile, head bowed slightly downward and to the side, her hair swept up into a dark chignon bound with a red patterned cord. She wears a deep indigo kimono with a woven plaid-like texture of blue, green, and violet threads, one pale hand raised to grasp the striped edge of the collar; the pale, matte skin of her face and neck contrasts sharply against a flat dark blue and black background. This mezzotint, titled "Juliet," is by Ushio Takahashi and is pencil-numbered "8/13 A.P" in the lower left margin.
