Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a scroll painting titled "Courtesan" by Kaigetsudō Doshin. The scroll is long and narrow, with a hanging cord at the top. The top section of the scroll features a green, beige, and orange plaid pattern. Below this section, two long, thin orange rectangles flank a central panel. The central panel has a beige background with a dark blue border adorned with a gold pattern along the top. Inside the central panel, a woman wearing a kimono with blue flowers on a brown, white, and red background is depicted, with her head tilted down and to the left. The bottom section of the scroll features the same green, beige, and orange plaid pattern as the top, and two small red squares are visible on either side. The woman's kimono has a red lining, and she appears to be wearing a white under-kimono. The background behind the scroll is gray.
