About this work

This print shows a woman bending over to pour water from a pot. A bare-chested child stands nearby, reaching up toward her face. The room has a tatami mat floor, green walls, and a bamboo screen. Outside the window, there’s a bamboo plant and a red wheelbarrow. The woman’s flowing robe and the child’s simple clothes suggest everyday life. The artist used flat colors and clean lines to keep it simple but lively. Next, check out genre scene to see more art about daily life.
