Women Chasing Crickets on an Autumn Moor

Chōbunsai Eishi

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a traditional Japanese woodblock print. Three women are present; the one on the left wears a brown kimono with white flowers and an orange lining, with a yellow headband; she holds a white net. The woman on the right wears a white kimono with an orange and green patterned obi; she faces the woman on the left. The third woman, mostly obscured, wears a striped kimono and faces away. In the background, a grassy hill with trees, bushes, and a few distant people; a white and orange covered cart with large wheels sits on the left side. The color palette includes shades of brown, orange, green, white, and black on a beige background. The scene appears to show women chasing crickets.
