The sepia-toned photograph depicts two young Japanese women in traditional white kimonos with red accents. They are posed in front of an elaborately painted backdrop showing a serene landscape with mountains, trees, and a body of water. The women are seated on wooden stools, with one woman holding a decorative fan and the other having her hands clasped in her lap. Between them is a small table or pedestal with what appears to be a lacquered box or container. The staged studio setting and formal attire suggest this may have been taken as a commemorative portrait or postcard in the early 20th century.

This is a historical photograph of two traditional Japanese performers in ceremonial dress. They are wearing white kimonos with red collars and are adorned with floral hair ornaments. The performers are posed on wooden platforms or benches against a painted backdrop showing a landscape with clouds or trees. Between them sits what appears to be a decorative container or basket. The image appears to be from the late 19th century and is hand-colored, as was common for Japanese photography of that era. The label at the bottom of the photograph reads "MIKO," which refers to shrine maidens or priestesses in the Shinto religion of Japan.
