Title: Surprised Beauty with Umbrella in Snow
A beauty looks over her shoulder at two figures retreating in the snow, a man wearing a blue robe and geta and his attendant. She is beautifully attired and holds a traditional umbrella and seems to be reacting with surprise to seeing the two men. Perhaps the man with the blue robe has a connection to her? There is lacquer-mimicking over-printing effects in her hair, and mica on the silver on her collar. Exquisitely printed.
