Fukagawa Shinchi - Charming portrait of a courtesan looking out the window as she ties her obi. Her kimono is shaded from gray to blue with a border of butterflies and grasses, and her obi reverses from a pink pattern of bird to a blue fabric with floral medallions. A scalloped cartouche at upper left shows a view of ship's masts at Fukagawa in Edo. An attractive design with soft color and nice detail in the simulated wood grain panels beneath the window.
