This unusual painting is done in Ukiyo-e style and looks like it should be a triptych woodblock but is actually a fine watercolor painting on silk. The silk was originally probably a scroll painting that has been laid down on a paper backing. The painting does not appear to be signed although there is a signature where the person is painting the floor screen. Stylistically it is very similar to Utagawa Torohayu or a follower, very similar in style to "A Winter Party" which is part of the National Museum of Asian Art DC. The painting came from the estate of a relative of Dorothy Miller who was head curator of MOMA during the early 20th century and was a very important part of Art history in America.

Condition: Some signs of old restorations and repairs to the silk, some appear like old insect damages from being rolled up. Small tear to the gold paper outside the silk border.
