• Title：Male and Female of Ryukyu People

• Artist：HIGA Seisei

A man stands proudly, dressed in a deep blue kimono with a golden belt around his waist. His confident stance and full beard give him an air of dignity.

Behind him stands a woman wearing a red check-patterned kimono, covered with another robe decorated with chrysanthemums and arabesque designs. Her gentle posture beside him creates a delicate, graceful impression.

Although they appear close, their eyes look in different directions, giving a sense of distance between them.
In the upper left corner, a Chinese-style poem describes a woman recalling a past love on a calm early-summer day. She realizes that those memories were as fleeting as a dream.

Together, the painting and the poem capture a single, emotional moment—like a scene from a touching love story.
