Comments - Charming scene of a beauty standing outside the Echigoya clothing store at New Year. She smiles happily as she looks over her shoulder, wearing a brown kimono trimmed with a blue green print border and tied with a darker brown brocade obi, a blue hood wrapped around her head against the cool air. Blue curtains with the shop's circular white crest hang in front of the doorways, with sacred shimenawa ropes hanging from the eaves and traditional pine and bamboo holiday decorations flanking an entrance at right. A lovely design, nicely composed and detailed.
