A traditional Japanese woodblock print depicts three women. Two women wear traditional Japanese hairstyles, adorned with long, thin hairpins and decorative combs; one woman on the left has a black bun with a gold hairpiece, another on the right has her hair styled with an ornate comb and pins; the central woman's long dark hair flows down her back under a wide-brimmed straw hat. The woman on the left wears a dark kimono with a green and white wave pattern; she holds a bow and arrow. The central woman wears a kimono with a diamond and floral pattern; she holds the skirt of her kimono with one hand and a pipe in the other. The woman on the right wears a gray kimono with a leaf pattern. The background is beige with Japanese writing; a green pillar with a lantern and a pink banner with black writing are visible on the right side.
