The Seventh Hour of the Night

The Seventh Hour of the Night by Kitagawa Utamaro: A woman wearing a striped kimono stands on the right side, her hair styled in a bun on top of her head. She looks down at a woman sitting on the left side. The seated woman's hair is adorned with a hairpiece; she wears a peach-colored kimono and sits on a floor cushion. She holds a paper and brush in her hands and looks up. Between them is a low table with a brazier on it. The background features a tan color with a darker tan floral pattern and a large rectangular shadow outline on the wall behind the standing woman. Small black Japanese characters appear vertically along the right and left edges.
