Kimono with Blossoming Plum Tree
Kimono with Blossoming Plum Tree by unknown artist. A full-body, long, light-gray kimono with short sleeves and a V-shaped collar. The kimono has a subtle sheen to the fabric and visible wrinkles. The bottom hem on the lower left side features a design of thin, dark-gray branches with small white flowers. The background transitions from black at the top to dark gray, then light gray at the bottom. The kimono appears to be standing upright on its own, casting a shadow on the surface below. The sleeves are wide and slightly curved downward. The garment's edges and seams are visible. The overall shape of the kimono is symmetrical.
