This painting shows a woman sitting on the floor, wearing a kimono. She has a hairpin in her hair and is holding something in her hands. The background is a light yellow color. The woman's kimono has a floral pattern, and she is sitting on a mat with a patterned cloth underneath her. There are some Japanese characters written on the painting, but they are not easy to read. The painting is a woodblock print, ink, and color on paper, created by Chôbunsai Eishi around 1794. It is held at The Metropolitan Museum of Art.
