She holds up a mosquito net with her right hand. The child, dressed in a simple orange garment, stands beside her, looking up. A green pillar stands to the left. The floor is covered with tatami mats and a red tile floor extends outside. A window with a grid pattern is behind the woman. Outside, plants and a small wooden box are visible.
