About this work

This fan shows a man and woman standing close in a garden. The woman wears a light dress with a short skirt, and the man has a red hat and a dark jacket. Behind them, trees and flowers fill the background, with birds flying above. The fan’s paint is soft and slightly faded, like a sketch. It’s folded in half, showing the handle and a few red-tinted ribs inside. Next, look up watercolor to see how artists use thin, layered paint like this.
