Beauties Sewing - Charming triptych of beauties busily sewing. At lower right, a woman examines a length of purple fabric bordered with flowers, a scissors, ruler, and pin cushion handy on the floor nearby. The beauty seated behind her folds a piece of tan cloth in her lap, smiling quietly as she looks down. In the center, a woman eagerly shows off a completed garment to her companion, who sits on a green cushion. Just above, an ornate vase holds a beautiful ikebana flower arrangement. Lovely color and detail in the attractive scene from daily life.
