The woman on the left sits on a low table, wearing a white kimono with a green floral patterned undergarment. A black and gold headpiece adorns her hair. She holds a pipe. The central woman stands, dressed in a pink kimono with a green and gold patterned undergarment, and a gold hairpiece. The woman on the right also stands, wearing a green kimono with a beige patterned overgarment and a black headpiece. The background features a beige wall with five hanging lanterns. The lanterns are pink with white designs. A brown and gold patterned mat lies under the sitting woman.
