Beauty with Auspicious Symbols

Comments - Charming portrait of a beauty wearing a pink kimono over a red under robe, smiling as she looks back over her shoulder. At lower right, a minogame or straw-raincoat turtle with moss growing from its shell is a symbol of longevity. At upper left, a lucky crane flies through the sky. At left, trays are piled with sweets and lower arrangements. An interesting design, detailed with light embossing on the pink kimono and faint allover cloth embossing on the background.
