The image shows an illustration of a man in traditional Japanese clothing. He faces left and wears a black rounded hat, a long gray robe with a geometric pattern over a light blue robe. He holds an open fan in his left hand. A pine tree branch is drawn in the lower-left corner. The background is beige. There are several lines of Japanese text in black and red ink throughout the image. The artwork appears to be from a book titled "Yuseiro's Picture Album" by artist Nishiyama Hōen.
