Description:
There is a poem in the "Collection of Poems of Ancient and Modern Times" which says, "when one smells the fragrance of the mandarin orange in May...." Flowers that bloom from early spring to early summer have perfume-like fragrance and are magnificent. I used Japanese fabrics to express the beauty of the Japanese language.
