Kubo Shunman

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Japanese-style artwork of a saddle, horse-dip, and other harness. The saddle is covered with black and white spotted fabric and green leather. Two green buttons on top of the saddle. A long spear-like object rests on top of the saddle, with a thin long stick and tassel hanging down. A brown cup with a circular design sits to the left of the saddle. A patterned fabric with tan and white stripes lies underneath the objects, a tan and white chevron patterned fabric behind it. A green cloth is on the right side. A red stamp in the upper-right corner. Black Japanese text on the upper part of the artwork.
