Series; Inner Chiyoda Palace (Chiyoda no Ooku)
Catching Fireflies - Beautiful scene of two beauties and a young girl catching fireflies in a garden under a willow tree, with the gentle glow of fireflies in the evening sky. The beauty at right carries a small cage to hold the insects, a round fan caught between her teeth. Lovely color and detail in the sumptuous kimono fabrics, including delicate embossing in the white trim. A charming print that would make a wonderful framed presentation.
