About this work
Overview

Subject & Meaning
The print depicts two women standing on a balcony, one holding a fan and the other a scroll, gazing out over a tiled roof. Their calm, dreamy expressions and the simplicity of the background suggest a serene atmosphere.
Technique & Style
The artist achieved depth through subtle use of ink, avoiding heavy lines. The women's robes feature soft folds and delicate shading, while the color palette is generally muted, with the bright green of the balcony's wall providing a notable exception.
