"Red Table with Fans and a Brush Stand" is a woodblock print by Ryūryūkyo Shinsai, created in the 19th century. The print depicts a simple, red table with a variety of objects arranged on its surface. Among them are several fans, a brush stand with peacock feathers, and a small black book. The scene is likely a study or a room dedicated to artistic practice, as the objects are associated with calligraphy and painting. The print, currently located in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, exemplifies Shinsai's minimalist style, and is a fine example of the Japanese ukiyo-e genre.
