A woman stands on the left side of the image wearing a kimono with a brown, orange, and white pattern. Her hair is styled in a bun on top of her head, secured by a white and blue ribbon. She looks down at a second woman who sits on the floor to the right, wearing an orange kimono with a patterned obi. The seated woman's kimono has a striped pattern on the bottom and she appears to be holding a blue and white cloth. A large framed screen stands to the right of the women featuring an illustration of a pelican standing next to plants. The screen's frame is black. The background includes a beige wall with a grid pattern and a window with a view of a rocky outdoor scene.
