This silk kimono showcases stenciled bamboo grass and tatewaku motifs. Measuring 49 inches (124 cm) from sleeve-end to sleeve-end and standing at 58 inches (147 cm) in height, it features the tatewaku, symbolizing the first spring heat with its rising steam, depicted through vertical, curvilinear lines that widen and narrow to create an hourglass effect. The unconventional color combinations on this kimono resemble those seen in the experimental work of graphic artists from a later period, reflecting the innovative spirit of early 20th-century Japanese art.
