The woman in the middle wears a dark-colored kimono and has her hair also styled in a bun; she looks at the book. The woman on the left wears a white kimono with a patterned under-kimono; she holds a pipe. In the background, a large window with a grid pattern looks out onto a landscape with trees and a bridge.
