Vertical rectangular artwork depicts a woman and a child. The woman sits on the left, wearing a kimono with a wide, low-cut neckline and a traditional Japanese hairstyle. She has her right hand to her chin, and her left arm resting on her knee. A young boy, bald-headed and wearing a simple robe, crouches on the right. He appears to be holding something. The background includes a few plants, and a wavy line suggesting a cloud in the upper part. The color palette is subdued, with shades of blue, orange, and brown. Small vertical Japanese characters are at the bottom left.
