A Japanese woodblock print depicts a scene with a large building featuring a tiled roof and an open side with people seated on a floor inside. The building has a porch area. Two women stand outside near a gate facing each other; one woman wears a kimono with a light-colored design, and the other woman wears a dark-colored kimono and holds a shamisen. A tree is on the left side. The background shows trees and a cloudy sky. A body of water runs along the edge of the building.
