The image depicts a man kneeling by a plum tree. The man, Musashibo Benkei, wears a traditional Japanese outfit, with a predominantly black and gold armor-like top and pink undergarms. A white head covering and hood encases his head. He sits on one knee with the other leg bent in front of him. The plum tree beside him features a gnarled trunk and branches adorned with pink flowers and green leaves. The background is a muted yellow color. There are several Japanese characters written vertically along the left side and horizontally at the bottom right. The man's facial features include a large nose, thick eyebrows, and a stern expression. He appears to be looking to his right. A small basket sits beside him.
