Man and Two Women at the Sea Shore

Utagawa Toyokuni

Cleveland Museum of Art

Three people sitting on the shore, one man and two women. The man sits on the left wearing a gray robe and black pants with his hair in a topknot. The man holds a tray with a teacup on it. The man sits cross-legged on a mat with a small tray with a bowl on it placed in front of him. The two women sit to the right, both wearing kimonos and having their hair styled in traditional Japanese fashion. The woman on the right wears a green kimono with a white lining and a black obi with a floral pattern. The woman behind her wears a dark-colored kimono and a hat. The background depicts a beach scene with waves and a mountain in the distance. People are shown in the distance running along the water's edge holding umbrellas. The image is rendered in black, white, and muted colors.
