A Girl Brings a Love Letter to Another Girl Under a Pine-Tree
The artwork features two women standing side-by-side, both wearing traditional Japanese clothing known as kimonos and high black hats with an orange stripe. The woman on the right is slightly taller and closer to the viewer, her kimono a light brown color with a patterned design on the bottom half. A sash wraps around her waist. The woman on the left is shorter and wears a similar kimono in a lighter shade. A long, thin tree branch with pine needles stretches from the top-left corner across the top of the women's heads. The background shows more trees and a light-colored sky. The artwork is on a beige background with a white border.
