Child's Nightmare of Ghosts, woodblock print by Kitagawa Utamaro
A woman in a blue patterned kimono kneels beside a sleeping child wrapped in a green-and-striped robe, lifting a pink cloth over the child's face. Above, faint ghostly figures in pale ink drift in a cloud-like shape, suggesting a dream or fear.
