One woman kneels down, meticulously grating a Japanese radish (daikon) on a red tray, while the other stands nearby, observing her companion with a gentle expression, holding a white towel. A plate of freshly prepared sashimi sits on a yellow low table between them, central to the scene. The shimmering white mica used on the collar of the seated woman's inner kimono and on the sashimi, adds a luminous quality, drawing attention to both the dish and her face. This subtle glow enhances the elegance of the composition and highlights the simplicity of the activity. This print is a reproduction by the Adachi Company. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Carver: Okura Hanbei / Printer: Oki Torao / Goto-ban (Goto Edition) ![]() Adachi Company's seal ![]() ![]() ![]() Browse thumbnail pages of various selections from the catalogue ...
