A woman in a white kimono with blue trim and a brown obi stands beside a large tree. The woman has long dark hair and wears a headpiece. She holds a fan in her right hand and a pipe in her left hand. The tree has a yellow tassel hanging from its trunk. A yellow fence surrounds the base of the tree. To the right of the tree is a blue stone pedestal with a lion statue on top. The pedestal has Japanese characters etched into it. A pink and blue rectangular inset with Japanese characters is in the upper right corner. The background features a gray sky, green bushes, and two red tree trunks. The image has a beige border.
