Beauty with a Ground Cherry Kakemono

Comments - Charming kakemono portrait of a beauty holding a ground cherry, smiling as she pushes back the leave to reveal the fruit. Her tied-died kimono features a faintly embossed dotted pattern with white blossoms with embossing on the centers, tied with a black and green print obi. Her hair is adorned with a comb, ribbons, and hairpins decorated with flowers, and a floral ornament with metal fringe. The first time we've seen this lovely design.
