A Day at the Tiled Bathhouse

Six rooms sit in two rows on a dark brown ground, and together they make a traditional bathhouse. Top left is a massage room with two beds, hanging herb bundles and a wall chart of hand positions. Next comes a towel room with tall drying racks, a linen trolley and a rod of tassels overhead. At top right an herbalist weighs leaves at a stone counter, surrounded by jars and a wall of small drawers. Below, an entrance hall with an arched street view has robes on pegs, shoe racks and a clerk with a clipboard. In the centre two bathers rinse at basins under lion-head spouts, with a water channel between them. At bottom right a bather fills a jug beside a blue-tiled pool framed by painted dolphins and waves. The room walls are each a distinct tile pattern, which makes the sections easy to tell apart.
