Woman Standing

Unidentified artist

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

A woman stands facing right, wearing a white kimono with a circular design on the chest. Her kimono has long, flowing sleeves and a train that drags on the ground. The kimono is wrapped around her body with a sash tied in the front. She wears an orange and black headpiece on her black hair. She stands on a brown floor in front of a wall with a black line across the top. The wall is beige with a vertical striped pattern. Below the line and behind the woman is an orange section with white waves and white birds flying. A small red seal is in the bottom-right corner. A small red and brown box is in the bottom-left corner. The background behind the woman is white.
