Visual Summary

Brief Description

Two figures, one with a ladle and bowl, the other a dish, under an umbrella.

Detailed Description

The artwork is a black ink drawing on light-toned paper, depicting two figures under an umbrella. The figure on the left is seated, facing right, with a large, rounded bundle strapped to their back. This figure has a face with large ears and holds a small, shallow dish in their hands. The figure on the right is kneeling, facing left, also with a large, rounded bundle on their back. This figure has a similar face with large ears and holds a ladle over a large, shallow bowl placed on the ground between the two figures. The bowl rests on a stack of two flat, rectangular objects. Above and behind the figures, a large, dark umbrella or canopy is partially open, supported by two visible poles extending upwards and to the left. In the upper right background, faint outlines of rectangular structures are visible. In the foreground, on the ground, several objects are arranged. To the left, a small, cylindrical object with a tassel lies horizontally. Next to it, a large, round, woven basket or jar with a distinct chevron pattern stands upright. To the right of the basket, three empty bottles of varying heights and shapes are positioned. The drawing uses bold, calligraphic lines and washes of black ink. Faint handwritten text in the bottom right corner reads "Ebisu and Daikoku" and "obtaining new year's fortune". The number "15" is visible in the bottom left corner.
