After a Bath - Lovely triptych of a young beauty after her bath, wearing a blue and white cotton kimono with an allover embossed pattern, a towel on a stand next to her. An attendant offers her a cup of tea, while another turns the handle of a fan to cool her. A charming scene, beautifully colored and detailed with burnishing on the black lacquer tray, mirror, and fan, and a light pattern of embossed hollyhock leaves in the background, a symbol of the Tokugawa shogunate. An attractive design we see less often than other subjects from the Inner Chiyoda series.
