A Japanese woodblock print depicts two women standing indoors. One woman stands on the right wearing a predominantly black kimono with a large pink obi and a white and pink floral pattern; she has black hair in an updo adorned with hairpins and a pink ornament; she wears zori sandals. The second woman on the left wears a pale kimono; she has a black hair ornament; she sits on a low platform. Between them are thin vertical cords. Bamboo leaves are visible in the top left corner. The background is beige. The women's hairstyles and kimonos are characteristic of late 18th-century Japanese fashion.
