Beauty Playing the Shamisen - Charming scene of a beauty playing the shamisen as her children listen. She smiles as she looks down, a songbook open on a low table before her. A young girl grins happily, while another child at left holds a songbook and an older girl at right stands with one hand resting on the doorframe. At lower right, a fan decorated with a kabuki actor portrait rests on the floor. A lovely design with a handsome interior setting, detailed with burnishing in the black obi.
