Nakamura Hōchū

Cleveland Museum of Art

Two-page spread from a book, with a drawing on the right page and minimal marks on the left. The drawing depicts a scene with three people. The person on the left is on the ground, wearing a headband and a short-sleeved top with a dark half-moon shape over their face and upper body; their right arm extends to the right. Next to them on the ground is a small black object. Behind them on the left is a wheel. The person in the middle wears a purple kimono with white spots, and green short sleeves; they wear a headband and have their right arm extended to the right, and their left arm bent at the elbow. They have an orange sash and orange and yellow footwear. The person on the right wears a black hat, a black top with long sleeves, and a white skirt; they hold a long object in their left hand. The background of the drawing is mostly blank. The pages are yellowed with age.
