This print shows a woman in a long, colorful kimono with black and pink patterns. Her sleeves are wide, and she wears a yellow headpiece. The background is simple, with a red banner and some text in gold. The woman holds a fan in one hand and looks slightly to the side. Her outfit is very detailed, with flowers and swirls painted on the fabric. The colors are bright but balanced, and the lines are clean and sharp. If you like this style, look up actor as the subject these prints often depicted.
