A traditional Japanese woodblock print with a beige background and pink sky. A large, triangular-roofed building with a fenced-in yard and trees stands on the left. Inside the building, four people wearing traditional Japanese clothing are gathered. One person is on the ground, while another appears to be on top of them. Two others stand nearby. On the right side, three people stand and two are crouched near a low table. The print features detailed black lines and subtle color. A vertical column of Japanese text borders the right edge.
