Description

We can tell that the woman is a courtesan by her hairstyle and the belt (obi) she wears, which is tied at the front of her kimono instead of at the back. Van Gogh framed it with a pond filled with water lilies, bamboo stalks, cranes, and frogs. This scene has a hidden meaning: grue (crane) and grenouille (frog) were French slang words for 'prostitute'.
