A man wearing a red patterned robe with black and white undergarments and a sword peers around a sliding door. He has his hair pulled back into a short topknot. The room has tatami flooring. The man stands on the right side of the image, obscured behind the partially open sliding door. The sliding door panels on either side of him have a geometric pattern painted on them. To the left of the man is a small table with curved legs and a handle on top. The wall behind the sliding doors is beige with Japanese writing scattered around. There are two red seals, one on the upper right and one on the lower right.
