A woman sits on the floor, her head slightly bowed and facing left; she holds a long-stemmed pipe in her hands. Her kimono has a green body with a red lining; the outer layer is red with a pattern; she wears a white undergarment. Her hair is pulled back into two buns, with two hairpins on top. There are Japanese characters on the right and bottom-left corners of the image. The background is a beige color.
