Description

A beautiful woman cools herself with a fan featuring the mimasu-mon crest of the Ichikawa family of kabuki actors while her partner sits on a bamboo bench, smoking a pipe. They are by a river, and three bats can be seen in the sky, suggesting it is early evening. This print is the "Summer" print of the Fūryūshiki Asobi (風流四季遊, "Elegant Play in the Four Seasons") series of prints by Koryūsai.
