About this work

This painting shows two women in blue robes working together. One holds a decorated screen with flowers and birds, while the other sits at a wooden table, carefully painting or writing on red paper. The room is plain, with simple wooden stands and a cloth draped over the table. The woman painting has a brush in her hand, suggesting she might be creating calligraphy or a detailed design. The other woman’s screen looks like something you’d see in a home, not just a workshop. If you like this scene, look up the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more works like this.
