A woodblock print depicts three people. A woman stands behind two people, her head above theirs. She wears a pink kimono with white flowers and a large hair ornament with green leaves and pink flowers. Her black hair is pulled back and a pink and white headband wraps around it. The woman looks to her right. The person on the left sits and faces right; they have short black hair covered by a green head covering, and wear a pink kimono with white flowers. The person on the right sits and faces left; he has black hair slicked back with a black patch on top, and wears a black and white kimono. He holds a branch with green leaves near the top of the woman's hair ornament. The background is light brown with vertical Japanese text on either side.
