About this work

Three women walk along a riverbank in long robes. Their clothes have flowing patterns, and two hold fans. The water looks calm, with a few ripples. In the background, there’s a hillside with pale yellow flowers and green bushes. The artist used soft colors and gentle lines to show movement. The women’s robes have delicate swirls, and the scene feels peaceful. Next, look up Suzuki Harunobu.
