Catalog note / 解説

Print shows on the left, two women consoling a third woman, in the center, one woman lifting another woman so she can attach a slip of paper to tree branch, and on the right, a woman standing on a bucket and holding onto a branch, while another woman holds the bucket steady. A strong wind is blowing blossoms off the trees and making it difficult for the women to attach prayer messages to the branches.
