Description
Yukata are known as summer kimonos when they're dressed up for special events, and they're just as fantastic as a spa robe or for lounging at home. Here a variety of traditional Japanese patterns are printed in tone-on-tone purple amid a design of cherry blossoms, sakura in Japanese. These gorgeous but short-lived flowers are symbols of new beginnings and living in the moment, and they're one of Washington, D.C.'s most recognizable springtime sights.
Museum Story
The Freer Gallery of Art and Arthur M. Sackler Gallery, the Smithsonian's National Museum of Asian Art, opened to the public in 1923, a gift to the nation from Charles Lang Freer. The Gallery contains an extensive collection of oriental art, prints, sculpture and silk panels, as well as a major group of 19th and 20th century American works.
