Detailed Description
A vertical scroll features decorative fabric borders around a central scene depicting an interior and exterior view. In the lower left, a woman sits on a light-colored, raised wooden platform with a grid pattern. She is dressed in a blue kimono adorned with small white and red floral patterns, and a red obi. Her dark hair is styled in an elaborate bun, and her face, painted in light tones, is turned upwards and to the right. Her left hand rests on her lap, while her right hand is near her knee. Next to her on the platform is a small, rectangular wooden tray holding two green, lidded containers. To the left of the woman, a folding screen with a light green border displays a painted landscape scene featuring tall, light-colored grasses and two dark birds in flight against a pale background. Below this screen, a light green floor with diagonal dark lines is visible. Behind the woman, a reddish-brown wall section features a circular window with a white grid pattern. To the right of the woman, the background is a plain, light brown. A dark branch laden with numerous small white cherry blossoms extends from the upper right corner, curving downwards. Below the blossoms, a large, irregular rock formation in shades of green and gray is depicted, with small red flowers growing around its base. The scroll is bordered by a gold fabric with a floral pattern at the top and bottom, and a brown fabric with circular motifs on the left and right. In the lower left corner, vertical dark script is visible.
