Komurasaki of the Miuraya and Shirai Gonpachi
The image depicts a traditional Japanese woodblock print of two women. A woman in a black kimono with thin stripes holds a katana with a patterned scabbard in her right hand. Her dark hair is pulled back into a bun on top of her head. She faces right, her head turned to look back over her right shoulder. A woman wearing a pink kimono and a large black and gold hairstyle sits behind the first woman on the right, leaning towards her. The woman's face is obscured by her hairstyle. A white border surrounds the print on all sides. In the upper-left corner of the print, there are six lines of Japanese characters. The background of the print is a light brown color.
