About this work

A woman in a bright red kimono stands in front of wooden lattice doors. She holds a fan in one hand and a long scroll in the other. Her hair is styled with flowers, and her sleeves are wide and patterned. The background is simple, with a pale wall and a round moon hanging nearby. Notice how the artist used bold colors and clear lines to show her outfit’s details. The kimono has a family crest on it, and the fan is decorated too.
