Moon Viewing

Comments - Lovely design of two beauties on a verandah enjoying the cool evening breeze, watching as a silver moon rises above the clouds. One woman rests her elbow on the railing, a pipe held in her other hand. Her companion pulls up the sleeve of her outer kimono, which is patterned with feathers and tasseled cords. A charming scene with pretty color and silver mica embellishing the moon.
