A seated man wearing a striped cloth around his waist reads a document. He sits on stairs. A naked torso to the waist, with black hair combed back. The man looks down at papers. He sits on the left on a low set of wooden stairs. A larger image of a woman sits on higher stairs on the right. She wears a green patterned kimono; her black hair piled atop her head. She holds a handheld mirror with her left hand. A smaller image in the upper left shows two people standing. The person on the left wears a red hat. A rabbit-like animal sits on the lowest step beneath the man. The background shows wooden floors, a hanging light, and a distant tree with green leaves. A small cage hangs on the wall to the left.
