This painting shows a parade of flower-covered carts winding through a city street. The artist painted each cart with bold ink lines and bright colors. The flowers look fresh, almost popping off the page. Sekka made many quick sketches first. His loose drawings show how he planned the final prints. The colors stay simple but vivid. Look for similar work by Kamisaka Sekka (Japanese, 1866–1942).
