The man on the right wears a red coat, white pants, and a black hat. Behind them, a gray stone structure with columns and a decorative top. A wooden door with a design is set into the structure. Two people sit on a bench to the left, a woman in a blue dress and a man in a hat. A low fence separates them from the two men. In the background, green trees and a pink and yellow sky, suggesting a sunset. A red banner with Japanese writing hangs on the right. A small purple and green roof is visible above the banner.
