Young Woman at Night accompanied by a Servant Carrying a Lantern and a Shamisen Box
A woman wearing a kimono with white polka dots on the inner layer and a black outer layer with a white pattern sleeps on another woman's shoulder. The sleeping woman's head is turned to the right. The woman on the left sits with her head turned to the left; she wears a kimono with red and white stripes on the inside and beige on the outside; she holds an object to her mouth with her right hand. A third person, wearing a black hat and carrying a white and black lantern and a black box with a flower design, bends over behind the women. The background is beige with black Japanese characters on the left.
