Two women in traditional Japanese kimonos are in a room with tatami mats. The woman on the left, a child, kneels with black hair tied in a bun on one side, wearing a red kimono, holding a shamisen. The woman on the right, an adult, crouches, wearing a beige kimono with a floral design, facing the child. A shamisen lies on the floor to the right. Behind them is a wall with vertical striped fabric on the left and a wood-paneled wall with a sliding door on the right. Above the door, a framed picture shows a landscape. Japanese characters are on the left.
