Comments - Lovely triptych showing the Meiji Empress and ladies of the court viewing the autumn color at Shiba Park. In the center, the empress sits on a chair, holding a fan and wearing a small crown. Beside her, a beauty in a phoenix patterned kimono watches the young prince as he looks out over the railing. At right, a beauty uses a pair of binoculars to see into the distance, where boats dot the water. The grounds are covered with lush green foliage and maple trees with red and orange leaves. A charming design with wonderful detail and vibrant color.
