Comments - Charming kuchi-e scene of a beauty using a feather duster to clean wooden boxes. Her hair is protectively draped in a pale blue towel, the sleeves of striped kimono tied back with a narrow red sash. A large parcel leans up against a wall behind her, wrapped in orange cloth and tied with rope. An interesting portrait of a beauty absorbed in her daily work.
