The image depicts a woman on horseback and a man standing next to her. The woman wears a long teal dress with red and gold trim around the neckline; she has brown hair. The man is dressed in a black jacket and light-colored pants, with a blue hat on his head. He appears to be looking up at the woman. The horse is brown with a red bridle and a blue bit. A red and gold sign with Japanese characters is visible in the top-right corner. In the background, there are buildings and mountains. The overall scene suggests an English couple, as indicated by the title "English Couple (Igirisujin)" by Utagawa Yoshitora.
