A man in a pink kimono with white and gold designs stands over another man in a tan kimono with a floral design. The standing man wears a robe with a large checkered pattern on the sleeves and a striped skirt. He has a sword on the right hip and a large piece of paper streaming from his left arm. The kneeling man's forehead touches the floor. The background features a green floor and tan wall with horizontal lines. A large window is on the left with black framing and a brown base. A small pot sits on the floor to the left of the window and another small pot sits on the floor to the right of the standing man.
