Beauty Breaking off a Blossoming Cherry Branch

Comments - Attractive shin-hanga portrait of a beauty breaking off a branch of a blossoming cherry tree. She smiles as the pulls the branch toward her, a few petals falling to the grass below. Her periwinkle blue kimono is bordered with tie-dyed yellow irises, and tied with a rust and bold print obi that reverses to a rosy pink tie-dyed pattern. A lovely design with fine bokashi shading in the background.
