The man on the left is crouched down, while the woman in the middle is holding up a fabric or paper screen. The man on the right is sitting on the platform. There is Japanese writing in the top-left corner of the page. The right page has an illustration of a man wearing a red outfit and a tall, rectangular object on his head.
