The image depicts a traditional Japanese woodblock print featuring three women. The woman in the foreground is wearing a kimono with a green, pink, and white striped top, and a long yellow kimono with pink lining and green floral designs. She is wearing a black hat with long sticks protruding from it. The two women behind her are dressed in kimonos and appear to be walking in a parade-like setting. The woman on the left is wearing a kimono with a green and gold patterned design on the sleeve and a pink lining. The woman in the middle is wearing a tall hat adorned with flowers. The background of the image is a light brown color with a branch and leaves in the upper-left corner and Japanese text on the right side. The overall scene appears to be a depiction of a traditional Japanese parade or procession.
