About this print
A woman in a purple kimono kneels, her face turned to the right. There, a woman in a pale purple kimono and a girl in a light blue kimono stand side by side. Behind them are a bamboo fence and red banners, and from the eaves overhead hang round white and red lanterns marked with crests.
This sheet, with the title plate at its upper right, is the far right of a three-sheet nishiki-e (multicolored woodblock print); side by side, the three sheets form one picture. Saruwakacho, named in the title, was home to the Morita-za, a kabuki theater of Edo.
Look closely at the girl's kimono: on the light blue ground, round red patterns like flowers are scattered all the way down to the hem. At her chest, the yellow sash stands out brightly among the red patterns.
