Couple on a Verandah Overlooking Rice Paddies

Comments - Attractive scene of a young couple on a verandah with a pine tree below and a view of rice paddies in the distance. The man rests his arm over the railing as he holds a slender pipe. He wears a coat over a wood grain patterned kimono, his hair pulled back into a topknot. His companion stands behind him, dressed in a tie-dyed kimono tied with a diamond print obi. A path leads between the flooded fields in the distance as the tiny figures of farmers bend over the water planting rice. A charming design.
