A Japanese woodblock print of a pair of lovers. The woman sits on the left side of a green bench, wearing a vibrant orange kimono underneath a beige and brown kimono. Her hair is styled in an updo, adorned with a black and gold hat. The man sits on the right side of the bench wearing a beige kimono with a patterned design. He has his arm around the woman, pulling her close. The background of the print fades from dark at the top to light beige at the bottom. A small floral design is on the bottom left corner. A gray and black color gradient ruler is on the right side.
