kimono – FIT Newsroom

This triptych includes, at left, a reproduction of Vincent Van Gogh's painting "Courtesane," which features a Japanese woman wearing a bright multicolor kimono, centered in a mustard yellow rectangle, which is framed by renderings of bamboo, waterlilies, and egrets. The center image of the triptych is a photo of a 1913 kimono-inspired satin, silk, and chiffon evening dress that is black, white, and pink, and is embellished with glass beading. The image at right is a reproduction of the 1843 painting "Tanabata No Take" by Yoshitama Utagawa. It shows a woman in classic geisha dress: black hair in an updo and she wears and flowing patterned kimono.
