Three young women in traditional Japanese kimonos playing a game on the floor. The woman on the left sits cross-legged with her head down, wearing a dark-colored kimono with orange and white designs. The woman in the middle sits on her knees with her hand extended, wearing a similar kimono to the woman on the left but with different patterns. The woman on the right stands behind them, wearing a yellow kimono with white and orange designs, holding a closed parasol in her left hand. A small orange table with a circular object on it and a teapot sit between the two seated women. The background features a sliding door with a grid pattern and a low wall with a cherry blossom tree. The floor is light-colored wood with darker lines. The walls are beige.
