Colorful woodblock print of a group of people. The man in the center wears a purple and red patterned robe with long white pants. He has black hair combed back with a white mustache-like piece on his forehead. The four women around him wear kimonos. One woman kneels in front of the man; three stand around him. The woman on the left wears a blue robe with pink lining and a floral pattern; she holds a fan. The other three women wear dark-colored kimonos with red and purple accents. The background features pink, red, and white flowers, green trees, and a purple and white cloudy sky. A green pillar is on the right. The entire scene is enclosed by a thin beige border.
