This is an image of a traditional Japanese folding fan, known as a "sensu." It has a half-moon shape with a broad top edge that tapers down to a pivot point at the bottom. The fan is made with paper (or possibly fabric) mounted on slatted wooden ribs that are visible at the bottom part of the fan. The paper has a series of vertical, slightly curved lines that may represent the folds when the fan is closed. The fan features an artistic design with two main subjects. On the left side, there is an intricate painting of what appears to be bamboo stalks and leaves, rendered in a delicate and precise style common in East Asian brush painting. On the right side, there is an image of a frog in a more grayscale palette, adding a whimsical touch to the artwork. There is Japanese calligraphy toward the left side of the fan as well as a red seal stamp, indicating the artist's signature or hanko, which is used to authenticate the piece. The background appears to be a very dark gray or black, which contrasts with the fan and highlights its details. The presentation of the fan against this background suggests that it could be a photograph meant to showcase the decorative art piece.
