This design shows a scene of the street Kyomachi itchome in front of the Takashima yujoya (a brothel owned by Takashima Kiyosaemon) where a courtesan says goodbye to a client. A wealthy merchant and his assistant; leave after a night's entertainment (right). Two porters are bringing in supplies; they look at a high-ranking courtesan followed by a brothel supervisor / matron (yarite) returning from an assignment (center and left). Four women, a samisen player and three prostitutes are seated in a room behind a koshi-mado (lattice window) of the Miura-ya koshimise (a "lattice-house" owned by Miura-ya Shirosaemon). They attract the attention of a samurai who hides his identity behind a straw hat and a blind man with a walking-stick. Moronobu may have had a special relationship with the Takashima-ya since it was also included in some of his prints and paintings.
