Comments - Charming scene of a beauty on a verandah, enjoying the cool evening air. She smiles as she looks up, admiring the large crescent moon glowing in the night sky. She wears a blue kimono patterned with large floral medallions and holds an uchiwa or flat fan. The river is crowded with pleasure boats, and on the opposite shore, lighted windows glow softly in the darkly silhouetted buildings. A classic summer subject.
