The image shows a sketch of four men and one woman, all nude. The page is divided into two sections. On the left side, a nude woman with dark hair is on her hands and knees, facing right. A nude man sits on his haunches to the right of her, with his left arm resting across his body and his right hand on his head. On the right side, a nude man sits cross-legged on the floor, holding a cigarette or pipe. Behind him to the right, a nude woman holds a cup. A third nude man sits with one knee on the floor, facing left, appearing to smoke. A book or box lies on its side, open, on the floor between the sitting men. The sketch appears to be drawn in pencil on aged, yellowed paper, likely from an album or sketchbook. The title of the piece is "Drinking Party" and it is by Kawanabe Kyōsai.
