Beauty with a Hood Kakemono

Comments - Attractive kakemono or vertical diptych of a beauty taking a stroll in winter, bundled up against the cold weather with a blue gray hood over her head. She wears a deep blue kimono bordered with maple leaves tied with a green brocade obi over a red under robe. Her tall wooden geta clogs keep her feet above the snow as she crosses a narrow bridge. A handsome design, nicely composed and shaded.
