A woman sits on a green chair with curved back and armrests. She has dark hair pulled back and wears a gray kimono with red and turquoise accents. A purple tablecloth with a white floral pattern covers a table to her right; on top of it is a teal vase holding a flowering branch. The background behind the woman is a gradient from red at top to pink then beige at bottom. A small image at top center shows a man in a white robe bent over. A colorful vertical rectangle and a white rectangle with black writing are at top right and left, respectively. A white vertical rectangle with black writing is on the left edge. The image background fades to white around the edges.
