A Kyoto streetscape with maiko
The title refers literally to patterns in the paving stones and figuratively to the jewel-like rarity of maiko. Their grace, elegance and fabulous outfits light up any space, even a city street. The three maiko are (left to right) Satsuki, Katsutomo and Mameroku. Year 2014. sold
