The Metropolitan Museum of Art

A vertical rectangular woodblock print depicts a man and a girl. The man is lying down, occupying the bottom half of the print, with his head on a pillow and covered by a blanket. His eyes are closed. The girl is sitting on a chair-like object above the man, leaning over him. She holds a pipe to her lips with her right hand. She wears a kimono with pink and black. Her hair is styled in a bun. The background of the print is beige. The print contains Japanese characters.
