The woman's hair is styled in a traditional Japanese updo. She stands on a red wooden porch holding a sword. A blue-green train extends from the kimono down the steps. In the background, three children peer out from behind a sliding door. The door has vertical orange and yellow stripes with blue accents. A sign hangs above the door. The roof of the building is red and slanted. In the far background, a body of water and trees are visible under a blue sky. Print by Utagawa Kunisada.
