Comments - Charming portrait of a beauty powdering her neck, holding a hand mirror up behind her head as she looks into a small mirror propped against a roll of tissues. The tissues and a makeup brush sit on a makeshift stand made from a tray stacked atop a go board. At left, a black lacquer tray on the floor holds a bowl of water with a toothbrush and a packet of tooth powder. A rectangular inset above shows a beauty helping a man dress, adjusting the sleeve of his plaid kimono. A wonderfully detailed image.
