Comments - Lovely kakemono or vertical diptych of a beauty strolling with an umbrella in hand. She looks over her shoulder with a rather dismayed expression, her mouth slightly agape. She wears a checked kimono tied with a green geometric print obi, and tall red geta clogs with spotted straps. Her hair is pulled back into two knots, adorned with a comb and hairpins, one decorated with a gourd and the other with an intricate floral medallion with beaded fringe. A charming image we've never before offered, also in the collection of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.
