“Hour of the Rat: Mistress,” from the series Women’s Daily Customs (Fuzoku bijin tokei)

The image depicts a woman in traditional Japanese clothing holding a baby. The woman has black hair styled in an updo and wears a kimono with a peach-colored top layer featuring white flowers and a lower layer with white polka dots on a peach background. She cradles the baby in her arms, who is naked and appears to be breastfeeding. The background is beige with a yellow half-circle behind the woman. There are vertical lines of Japanese text on either side of the image and a small signature in the bottom-left corner. A white scroll with Japanese text is on the right side. The woman and baby are the main focus, taking up most of the space.
