Garden in Early Summer, 1893

Comments - Lovely evening view of a garden in early summer. At left, a beauty strolls along a wooden walkway over an iris pond, admiring the purple blossoms. In the center, a young girl gestures at a cuckoo flying past the full moon above. Through the round window at right, a mother can be seen cuddling her young child, the opening framed by colorful peonies, a stone lantern, and a maple tree. A charming summer subject with attractive detail and color in the kimono fabrics and soft shading in the evening sky.
