Description
箱根芦ノ湖畔で描かれた作品。モデルとなった夫人の回想によれば、この作品は黒田が連日、湖畔で水を描く研究をしていた折に生まれたという。浴衣の色、柄が水と通い合い、静かな湖水と穏やかな女性の表情が呼応している。
This painting was created in 1897 at Ashinoko Lake in Hakone, which Kuroda visited for a summer retreat with his future wife, Teruko. This work is characterized by its invigorating and uncomplicated style. It has been featured on stamps and in textbooks, making this work familiar to many Japanese. （黒田記念館特別室解説パネル）
