About this work

This image depicts a group of four women and one man dressed in traditional Japanese attire, walking in a line. The woman at the center, wearing a yellow kimono, is holding a red and pink fan and is flanked by two women in brown kimonos, one of whom is holding a parasol. The man, dressed in a black kimono, is walking behind them. The group is set against a plain beige background. The women's kimonos feature intricate designs and patterns, adding a touch of elegance to the scene. The parasol held by one of the women adds a pop of color and texture to the image. This painting is reminiscent of the work of artist Torii Kiyonaga.
