Colorful woodblock print of a woman wearing a kimono, standing on a beach. The woman is standing on the left side, with her body angled slightly to the left and her head looking down. She has dark hair pulled back into a bun with a few loose strands framing her face. The kimono is beige with a geometric pattern of peach and dark brown. Her obi is dark with a peach-colored flower. Her left hand holds a round orange parasol decorated with a black band and a small tassel. The parasol's handle is dark brown and extends over her left shoulder. Her right hand grips the kimono's hem, which trails on the ground behind her. The background is black at the top, with wavy beige and brown lines representing water at the bottom. A large circular object, possibly a moon or a hole in the ground, is on the right side. Japanese characters are written vertically on the right side.
