About this work

A woman in bright green and red robes stands on a cloud, holding a red fan. Her black hair is styled high, and she wears a red headband. Behind her, a temple floats on a pink cloud, with birds flying above. The sky is light blue, and the scene looks dreamy. Her robes have bold patterns, and the colors pop against the soft background. The temple in the distance looks like something from a storybook. Look up The Cleveland Museum of Art to see where this print is kept.
