Case (Inrō) with Design of Fox Wedding Procession in Rain
Rectangular, dark brown, lacquered case with rounded corners and a black cord handle on top. A fox wearing a red kimono walks to the left carrying a large, cylindrical object. Another fox in a green kimono rides in a beige, curtained vehicle pulled by a third fox in a green kimono. The vehicle has a curved roof. The background of both images features diagonal gold lines and gold hills. The scene depicts a fox wedding procession in the rain. A fourth figure appears to be under an umbrella. Gold and black designs are on the cylindrical object and the vehicle. The case is divided into two panels.
