The print reveals the elegance characteristic of Kunisada's style, specifically celebrated for depicting beautiful women and kabuki actors. The framed piece measures 8 1/2 x 10 1/2 inches, with the image itself measuring 7 x 5 inches. The print exhibits some age-related toning, with visible foxing spots on the kimono, though the blue of the parasol remains vibrant.
