"The Hell Courtesan (Yûkun Jigoku Dayû), from the series Gekkô Zuihitsu (Gekkô's Miscellany)"

Ogata Gekko's woodblock print "The Hell Courtesan (Yûkun Jigoku Dayû)," from the series Gekkô Zuihitsu (Gekkô's Miscellany), shows a woman with long, loose black hair seen from behind, kneeling in a green kimono patterned with red and cream motifs, one arm resting on a red-lacquered X-frame stand. To the right, a pine tree partly screens a second, smaller figure wrapped in a brown patterned robe, standing with its face turned away; a small red-topped object sits in the lower right corner. The scene is set against a flat, muted grey ground with little other detail, giving it a spare, quiet mood, and a title cartouche appears in the upper left corner.
