This print shows a person in fancy clothes carrying a tall, decorated box. Their robe has bold black patterns and bright colors. The box has writing on it and looks heavy. The person also holds a round fan in one hand. The artist used careful lines to make the patterns pop. This style was common in Japanese prints of the time. Look up Okumura Toshinobu to see more of his work.
