Totoya Hokkei

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

A woman sits on a tatami mat on the floor, wearing a topknot adorned with a hairpin and a kimono with polka dots. The kimono has a black, red, and green pattern. She holds a bow and arrow. A fan and a basket are on the floor beside her. A low table stands behind her with two children sitting at it. A large green and red framed picture hangs on the wall behind the table. The room has a shoji screen and a wall with a peach-colored vertical stripe. The background is beige. A green kimono-clad figure's back is partially pictured on the right.
