About this work

This print shows a woman in a long, patterned robe and a wide-brimmed hat. She holds a fan in one hand and stands near a river, with a tree branch above her head. The background is mostly empty, just water and a few leaves. The artist used simple shapes and bold lines to keep things clean and easy to read. The colors are soft, like faded ink, and the whole scene feels calm. If you like this style, check out Torii Kiyonaga for more prints like this.
