I Want to Show You the Cherry Blossoms in Bloom, 1878 - Attractive portrait of an upper-class beauty under a blossoming cherry tree. She looks over her shoulder with a pleasant, satisfied expression, smiling slightly, holding a folding fan in her hand with its colorful streamers wrapped around it. She wears a purple kimono patterned with large blossoms over a white kimono tucked into red hakama pants. Her hair is smoothed back into a ponytail tied with a white ribbon, and she wears fashionable two-tone lipstick. A lovely spring subject with soft shading in the sky and delicate embossing on the white kimono.
