Comments - Charming scene of courtesans relaxing in a garden in springtime. Two women at left sit in Western style wooden chairs with padded seats, while a beauty at right sits on a bench covered with a floral cloth. The young kamuro or child apprentice beside her looks up at the birds fluttering past the blossoming cherry tree above. Nicely detailed with embossing in the white kimono trim.
