Spread Four from Volume Two of People of Japan in Light Verse (Kyōka)

Open book with two pages showing illustrations and Japanese text. Left page: a woman in a traditional Japanese kimono stands indoors, facing right; her kimono has a beige base with darker beige stripes; she wears a blue obi and a black hairpiece; a doorway shows a room with tatami flooring and a low table. Right page: a man sits at a low desk; he wears a black haori over a blue garment; a straw hat rests on his head; he holds a round object; a rectangular tray on the desk holds writing materials; a bottle; and a brush. The background of both pages is off-white with age; black borders frame the illustrations; and Japanese characters are written in black ink.
