The image depicts a full-body portrait of a portly man in traditional Japanese clothing. He wears a green robe over a blue top with a white floral pattern and a red garment underneath. A black and white checkered fabric is draped over his shoulders. The man has black hair combed back on the sides. He sports black socks that end at his calf and beige zōri sandals. The man holds a hand fan in his left hand with a painting on it. He holds his right hand to his face as if he is yawning. Behind him, there are bamboo stalks protruding from a wooden fence. The background sky is beige. He stands on a yellow floor.
