The Oiran Hinazuru of Chojiya Standing upon a Pile of Futon
The image depicts a traditional Japanese woodblock print featuring a group of people. The central figure, a woman, stands on a pile of futon, wearing a traditional Japanese kimono with a long pink and white train. The woman wears a large hat, adorned with a circular decoration on top and a long, curved piece that extends to the back. She has her hands clasped together. Three women surround her, all dressed in traditional Japanese kimonos. The woman to the left sits on the floor; the other two stand beside the central figure. The two standing on the right wear kimonos in shades of orange and pink with gold patterns. They both hold open umbrellas. The background features a yellow tone with black outlines of tree branches and pink blossoms. Japanese characters are written vertically on the left side.
