Courtesan Seated on a Bench Enjoying the Evening Cool in Summer
A woman sits on a bench. The woman is wearing a kimono with a brown base color and a white, blue and green floral pattern. Her hair is black and styled in a traditional Japanese updo with two buns on top of her head. The bench has a pink and gold patterned top and white legs. There is a round object with a red and white striped pattern and a black handle sitting on the left side of the bench. The background is a solid tan color with a darker border on the left and right sides featuring a repeating pattern of blue and black designs. There are several lines of black Japanese characters written vertically and horizontally on the top and right side of the image. A couple of red stamps are featured near the bottom-right.
