Cleveland Museum of Art

A woman kneels on a patterned rug with her right knee bent in front of her and her left leg stretched out behind her. The woman wears a traditional Japanese kimono in shades of brown, peach and white with a floral pattern. The kimono has a long train behind her. Her hair is styled in a traditional Japanese updo and she wears a traditional Japanese hat with a decoration on top. The woman sits on a green and peach patterned rug. Behind her to the right is a green stand with a parasol on it and a peach cloth hanging over the stand. The parasol has a black and white striped pattern. The background of the image is a beige color with some Japanese writing on the left side. The image appears to be a traditional Japanese woodblock print.
