The standing geisha on the left wears a blue and white checkered kimono with a black obi; her kimono has a pink lining visible at the sleeve and hem. Her hair is styled in an updo adorned with a decorative piece; she holds a cigarette holder to her lips. The seated geisha on the right wears a primarily white kimono with a patterned obi; only her head and shoulders are visible. The background behind the standing geisha is a warm brown color; some Japanese characters are written vertically on the left side. The overall color palette consists of muted browns, blues, and whites.
