An Oiran Rearranging Her Hair in the Street while a Young Samurai Looks on
A woman in a kimono with a floral pattern and hair pulled back stands on the left side, with her right hand raised to her head. The kimono has a design featuring clusters of grapes or berries. The woman appears to be barefoot with her left leg slightly bent. On the right side is a man wearing a striped loincloth and a conical hat. He carries a large pack on his back with two swords protruding from it and holds a staff in his right hand. Behind the man are two baskets on a tray and a simple building. The image includes a color scale at the bottom. The background is a light beige color with a darker border.
