Description
Title page for the story “Kimiko” showing a Japanese woman in traditional dress crying under what looks like a willow tree on a full moon night.
The full text inside the cartouche reads:
Kimiko
Story of a Geisha
To wish to be forgotten by the beloved is a soul-task harder far than trying not to forget.
(Poem by Kimiko.)
