A grass-green colored kimono is well suited for a fair-faced, neat woman. The white handkerchief in her hand gives her a further freshness. The painter, Shimei, pursued the inner aesthetics of women, but in this work, he skillfully expresses the visible female peculiarity, a soft and mild atmosphere, by cutting extra depictions and taking advantage of the paper texture.
