Untitled is a 1771 ink by Ippitsusai Bunchō, a Romanticism work, depicting animal, held at Metropolitan Museum of Art.
This painting shows a woman in a kimono, kneeling on the floor. She's looking down at a small animal, maybe a cat or a dog, that's standing on its hind legs. The woman has a flower in her hair and is wearing a long, flowing robe with a pattern of flowers on it. The background of the painting is a simple room with a sliding door and a railing. The colors are muted, with shades of green, brown, and beige. The overall mood of the painting is peaceful and serene.
