“A rare image portraying two adult females making love.  Striking is the tissue between their joined hands (probably to wipe off their body fluids).  In the background one can see a folded kimono featuring a dragon motif.” excerpt by Ofer Shagan from  Japanese Erotic Art: The Hidden World of Shunga.
