Okumura Toshinobu's "Woman Disrobing" depicts a woman in a kimono, partially undressed. She has black hair styled in a traditional Japanese updo. The woman wears a yellow kimono with a floral pattern underneath a black kimono with a geometric pattern. Her kimono is draped around her body, with one sleeve hanging off her shoulder. She holds the kimono with her left hand. The background features a circular design with Japanese writing and other Japanese characters. The artwork has a beige background with visible signs of aging. The woman's body is positioned at an angle, leaning slightly to the right. Her facial expression is serene. The overall composition suggests a traditional Japanese ukiyo-e woodblock print.
