Beauties on a Moonlit Night

Comments - Terrific image of three beauties on a moonlit night. The beauty at left carries a pipe case and tobacco pouch in her hand, her blue cotton kimono patterned with butterflies and grasses. Two puppies play at her feet, while her companion in the center leans back against a palanquin. At right, a beauty reads a book as she waits beside a lamp post. A full yellow moon glows above, casting shadows on the ground, and bats flutter about the night sky. A fantastic design, rarely seen in reprint.
