GEISHAS PARTYING
This surimono shows 3 geishas rehearsing their music or possibly playing for their own pleasure and not a patrons?
Notice how they look at each other smiling and not outwards at any onlookers and one of them has loosened her hair or hasn't finished arranging it while one is reinserting a loose comb and has her robes loosened too and the woman with the samisen is chatting to the zither player perhaps about the sheet of song lyrics ?
I wish I could read 18th japanese cursive.
Enjoy !
