Hina-ningyo cloth
For Japan's "Girls' Day" or "Doll Festival." This beautiful printed cloth shows the hina-dan, or the platform that Hinamatsuri dolls sit on, with all the dolls... in action. The hina ningyo, or set of hina dolls, depicts a wedding in the Japanese Imperial Court circa 1000 CE. Photo taken in Osaka. http://www.flickr.com/photos/m-louis/106793559/
