The image depicts a man in traditional Japanese clothing standing indoors. He wears a kimono with a green base and a wave pattern in shades of orange and green. Over the kimono, he has a divided orange and green haori with a large circular design on the back. His hair is styled in a traditional Japanese topknot. He stands on a green floor, with a wooden platform or stairs behind him. On the right, there is a large scroll. A cherry blossom branch extends from the upper left corner. The background wall is beige. The man's attire and hairstyle suggest he is a high-ranking samurai.
