Comments - Attractive triptych depicting the Meiji Empress and her ladies-in-waiting going for a stroll. The empress wears a delicately embossed white outer robe and carries a folding fan decorated with red ribbons. She wears a small golden headdress, and has the "moth's wing" eyebrows popular at the time. An attendant shelters her beneath a Western-style purple umbrella. Her companions all wear colorful kimono over white robes tucked into red hakama pants. A lovely design with fine line work in the hair and additional embossing in the white kimono trim.
