Street Performers

Comments - Intriguing illustration of itinerant street performers strolling from house to house at New Years holiday. The fellow in front dances along, hopping on one foot and waving a tattered fan. He wears a mask and carries a short pole over his shoulder. A man and a woman follow behind, their faces hidden by woven hats, the man tapping out a rhythm on a hand drum. An interesting subject we've never seen in reprint before.
