Unsigned: Poetic Scene of Chinese Woman Sewing

Artist: Unsigned (Seal Unread) School of Hiroshige
Title: Chinese Woman Sewing
Date: ca 1860

Tranquil scene of a woman wearing Chinese robes who holds a needle and thread. She might be sewing, or she might be threading an item or group of items. A few bamboo plants grow next to the simple, thatched structure to her right. The feeling is quite poetic, with white clouds seeming to climb up against the sky. The seal is unread, but the paper, printing and colors are consistent with a work made about 1860.  According to a kind internet sleuth, the seal seems to read Seisai (静斎).

Condition: Excellent impression, color and condition.

Dimensions: 34.5 x 11 cm  
Signed: Unsigned, with artist's seal unread
