Cherry Blossom Viewing - Beautiful triptych of a beauty and her young attendant viewing delicate pink and white cherry blossoms. The beauty wears a lovely aqua kimono with an intricate pattern of wisteria blossoms and a royal cart on the sleeve. She shades her eyes with an elegant fan, the ribs gently embossed, and a small lacquer case is tucked into the front of her robe. A canvas tent wall is tied to the cherry tree at right to provide privacy for a picnic. Beautifully detailed with fine embossing in the white kimono collars and tent fabric, and burnishing in the hair. A wonderful springtime subject, exquisitely printed.
