Colorful Japanese woodblock print featuring two people on a tatami mat. The woman sits on the left wearing a kimono with a red, blue and yellow floral pattern. Her hair is styled in a bun with a white flower. The man on the right reclines on the mat wearing a purple kimono with a floral pattern and a green under kimono. He has a white headband around his forehead and a blue obi. The pair are on a balcony overlooking a body of water and a tree on an island. The sky behind them fades from pink to blue. There are several Japanese characters on the bottom. An object resembling a lantern sits on the right. The print is by Utagawa Kunisada.
