This double-page illustration from Suzuki Harunobu's *Picture Book of Spring Brocades (Ehon haru no nishiki)*, created in 1771, features two women. The left page depicts the women standing on a platform, the one on the left holding a small tray, while the woman on the right rests her hand on her chin. The right page displays a landscape scene with a river winding through a mountainous area, a tree perched on a cliff, and a moon visible in the sky. The image is characteristic of *ukiyo-e* style, depicting the beauty and style of Edo-period (1603-1868) Japanese life.
