He is coyly looking into the third panel where his gaze finds a coyly looking woman: Her body faces right (away from the man) but her head subtly turns to the left. A third actor is in the first panel. This woman looks into the second panel at the man she is dressed much more simply than the other two. The background is a dark solid blue, and the entire print is framed by a black and gold border.

These panels are made from 2 portions: a white block filled with text, and a red rectangular block to the right and overlapping the white. The print is framed by a border which is black and has light blue and pink decorative bands in it. The seven women are in a room that is mostly green in colour. All the windows are closed, and blinds shut. From left to right: a woman stands reading; a woman sits at a table with scrolls on it (both women facing right); Three women in the center panel engaged in - maybe - a conversation: 2 are standing and one sitting in the middle front of them; two women in the third panel face right, the first sitting and reading, the second standing. The women are all wearing red fabric tied to the waist and flowing to their feet.
