About this work

This painting shows a woman in a kimono standing on a balcony, looking out at a landscape. She's holding a fan and has a dog by her side. In the background, there are hills and a body of water. The woman's kimono is decorated with flowers, and she has a small crown on her head. The dog is black and looks like it's barking. The landscape in the background is peaceful, with a few trees and hills. The painting is done in a style that's reminiscent of Japanese art from the 18th century.
