The image depicts a traditional Japanese scene. Three women in traditional Japanese kimonos with long black hair are on an elevated platform. Two women are sitting on the left, one on the right. The woman on the far left sits cross-legged on a patterned floor. The other two women are on a raised platform; one sits cross-legged facing the right; the other sits on her knees facing left. A patterned curtain hangs on the left. Two men stand on the floor below the platform facing the women; they wear traditional Japanese clothing and black headwear. The background shows a traditional Japanese room with a wooden floor, blinds, and a tree outside. The scene is titled "Court Ladies Making Dolls" and is by Kubo Shunman. A beige wall with a tree is in the background.
