About this work

A woman in a blue-and-white checkered robe is standing against a striped wall. She’s holding a pair of red scissors, cutting a long red cord tied to a bunch of flowers. The flowers are bright pink, purple, and white, hanging from a green stem. Her hair is pulled up neatly, and she’s wearing a red sash over her shoulder. The way the lines in her robe and the wall repeat creates a pattern that pulls your eye around the picture. The scissors look sharp, and the cord is thick—she’s clearly working carefully. If you like this style, check out Mizuno Toshikata.
