This painting shows a woman in a traditional Japanese kimono, reading a book. She has black hair styled in an updo and is wearing a blue and white kimono with a red collar.

The woman's kimono has a floral pattern, and the cat's fur is depicted in detail. The overall atmosphere of the painting is one of quiet contemplation.
