Description
A woman in a formal kimono with a wide obi stands at the center wearing a broad, dark hat trimmed with pink tree peony blossoms, holding a long pole or staff angled upward. Beside her a smaller attendant figure in a blue-and-white patterned robe carries a matching pole, and a round red emblem/fan shape appears near the lower right. The palette is dominated by muted golds, dusty pinks, and indigo blues, with a checkered gate or screen structure and a pale tower or lantern form in the misty background; a vertical title cartouche with Japanese characters runs along the upper right edge.
