A woman and a man in traditional Japanese clothing. The woman holds a lantern in her right hand above her head. She wears a green and beige kimono; a circular emblem is on her exposed right shoulder. Her hair is pulled back. The man sits on one knee, his head tilted back, and holds a sword in his right hand. He wears a yellow and white kimono; black straps cross his chest and right shoulder. His hair is short. They are outdoors; a leafy tree branch hangs above them, and a building is in the background. A hill is behind the building. The image has a beige border.
