An Oiran Seated in a Parlor Applies the Fire Treatment to the Bared Back of Another Woman
The image depicts a black and white drawing of three women. The woman on the left sits on the floor, wearing a kimono with a floral pattern, and holds a fan in her right hand. A small table with a round top and thin stem is to her right. The middle woman sits cross-legged, wearing a kimono with a floral pattern, and bends forward. Her back is bare from the neck down to the lower back. The woman on the right, also wearing her hair in a bun and minimal clothing, bends forward to the left. Her left hand holds a container with objects inside. In the background, a bare tree branch protrudes from the upper left. The drawing is on a beige background.
