This painting shows a woman in a blue kimono with white circles, standing on a wooden floor. She holds a long stick over her shoulder, and a white parasol in her left hand. She wears a large white hat and white shoes. In the background, there are two black objects with Japanese writing, and a picture of a man in a green kimono. The woman stands in front of a low wall, with a blue sky visible behind it. The overall mood is one of quiet contemplation. If you like this style, you might also enjoy the work of artist Utagawa Kunisada.
