Comments - Lovely portrait of an elegant courtesan, smiling as she looks over her shoulder, a loose wisp of hair framing her face. Her purple outer kimono is patterned with delicate green blossoms and a carp leaping up a waterfall, worn over a tie-dyed red-orange under robe. Her red-orange obi features a playful design of rabbits and flowers. A beautiful image, detailed with fine line work in the hair, silver mica in the waterfall and obi, and handsome wood grain impression in the background.
