Description

Have you wondered where the moon is? Yes, the moon is in the water, floating on the ripples!

The young lady in the image seems to be immersed in thought, idly gazing at the reflection of the moon on the water. She is wearing a light sash together with the large red obi, and this is printed with a very delicate double gradation on the 'shibori-zome' pattern.
