Colorful woodblock print depicts a scene of a foreigner and his family in a Western-style home. The man sits on a red chair on a covered porch with a young girl on his lap; both have fair skin and dark hair. He wears a black coat, white pants, and a bow tie. The girl wears a long-sleeved red dress with blue trim and a blue skirt. A boy with dark hair in a green coat and blue plaid pants stands beside them. Inside the house, a woman with dark hair sits at a table on the right making clothes; she wears a black top with red trim and a long blue and pink skirt. Another woman in a green dress and red skirt stands behind her. The background features a house with a covered porch and several windows. A black bar at the top contains white Japanese characters.
