A 19th-century Japanese woodblock print in the ukiyo-e style depicting a weaver using a beater, a weaving tool designed to push the weft yarn securely into place, in her hand, mounted from a notched pole and suspended overhead. Beaters appear both in a hand-held form, and as an integral part of a loom. At her feet, she controls several heddles with their mounting and attachments.
