Four women, all wearing kimonos, are in a room with sliding doors featuring a tree and bamboo. The women have black hair and sit on mats; three wear red undergarments. One sits on the floor, leaning on a sword; a sword hangs on the wall. A box is on the raised platform. The picture is in a triptych format. The color palette includes beige, red, blue, black, and white. The artist's name and title, "Chiyoda Castle (Album of Women) by Yōshū (Hashimoto) Chikanobu," are written in the bottom-left corner.
