Comments - Amusing scene of beauties drinking sake on a verandah. The woman at left sprawls on the floor as she holds out her cup for a refill of wine. Her young companion smiles indulgently as she pours form a blue and white ceramic bottle. A red lacquer tray on the floor holds a bowl of food and a tray of sushi. The room overlooks a view of the river, with blossoming cherry trees and tea stands along the opposite shore. Nice detail in the elegant kimono and obi fabrics and the household furnishings.
