Beschreibung:
First sheet of pentaptych Courtesans on parade were a popular ukiyo-e subject. They show women in their most resplendent finery, often accompanied by their young female attendants (kamuro) in matching kimono, either en route to meet a client or for special occasions like the cherry-blossom festival depicted here. A phoenix pattern decorates this courtesan’s obi sash, and her kimono prominently features a brush painting of bamboo complete with the seals of the painting’s artist. Famed artists were frequently commissioned to paint directly onto such lavish kimono.
