The print depicts a woman sitting on the ground next to a low table. She wears a blue and white striped kimono with a red and white lining, and a black obi. Her hair is styled in an updo with two hairpins, one red and one gold. The woman's mouth is open and she looks to the left. A black and gold circular object rests on the ground in front of her. The low table beside her is yellow with a grid pattern on top and four legs. In the background, there is a body of water, and on the opposite bank, a tree and a hill are visible. The sky above is blue with a full moon in the top left corner. The overall scene suggests a serene and peaceful atmosphere, possibly at night. The print is by Utagawa Kunisada.
