This painting shows three scenes of people in old-fashioned clothes. In the left scene, a man in a black suit stands near a bed with a person lying on it. Nurses in white uniforms and hats stand around the bed. The right scenes show a man in a black suit and a woman in a long dress talking to each other. Two other women in long dresses stand nearby. The scenes are colorful, with red curtains and pink floors. The people are dressed in formal clothes, and the atmosphere looks serious. This painting is a good example of the work of artist Kobayashi Kiyochika.
