About this work

This print shows a woman in a long, flowing robe with bold black and gold stripes. Her sleeves are wide, and she holds a fan in one hand while her other arm rests on a small table. The table has a teapot, cups, and a tray of food, with a tree and birds painted behind it. Her hair is styled high, and she wears a white circle symbol on her chest. The bright colors and dramatic poses suggest this might be a portrait of someone important, possibly from theater. The style looks like it’s from Japan, with simple shapes and strong outlines. Look up actor to see how performers like this were often shown in art.
