Comments - Handsome kabuki triptych showing a beauty and two men gathered beneath a maple tree as they travel by night. The woman rests her hands on a yoke over her shoulder as she chats with the fellow at right. He stares back at her with an angry frown, a folding fan dangling from a bamboo stalk over his shoulder. The fellow at left has pushed down his kimono, baring his muscular upper body. Colorful maple leaves frame the dark sky above. Only the second time we've seen this rare Chikanobu design.
