About this work

This print shows a person dressed in a long, dark robe with bright red and white patterns. Their outfit includes a wide black collar, a black hat with a bow, and a sash wrapped around their waist. The background is simple, with a few horizontal lines and a plain wall. Notice how the robe’s sleeves and hem have delicate floral designs—tiny and precise. The artist used flat colors and clean outlines, typical of this style. Next, look up Katsukawa Shunshō to see more prints like this.
