The woman in the center wears a blue garment; she faces left and holds up the clothing line. The woman on the right wears a kimono with a black and white checkered pattern; she faces right with her head turned to the left. A tree grows in front of the balcony. In the background, a mountain and rooftops are visible. The color palette includes shades of pink, blue, black, and beige. The image has a distressed appearance with visible signs of aging.
