Description

Following the previous few images, the artist is Katsukawa Shuncho. Two women appear to be chatting while walking, with a young boy following behind, carrying something on his shoulder.

The artist depicted the ladies' kimono patterns so carefully that the focus of the image seems to be on the kimono.

This print reminds us young women today who enjoys modern magazines full of fashionable pictures. Ladies in those days would have gotten many hints about their kimono from such images: how to tie an obi sash, what color combinations are nice, and so on.
