A vertical, rectangular artwork depicting two people. The person in front is a man with a black topknot hairstyle and bare feet. He wears a light-colored robe with a sash around his waist. The man is bending forward slightly, supporting the woman on his back. The woman has black hair pulled back and wears a kimono with a design. She leans forward with her head down, her face partially obscured by her hair. The background features a green area at the bottom with a bush on the left and a tree branch with leaves hanging down from the top. The color palette includes shades of green, beige, and black. The image appears to be a traditional Japanese woodblock print.
