Comments - Lovely portrait of a courtesan kneeling on a verandah in springtime. Her blue violet outer kimono features an owl in a maple tree with sparrows in flight, worn over a red tie-dyed robe bordered with a brown print. A stone balustrade runs across the background, with blossoming cherry trees against the night sky beyond. A lovely design, detailed with embossing on the white kimono collar.
