From the Minneapolis Institute of Art record

In the Kitsugen quarters of the Yurikoku (the land of pleasure), the famous onnagata (female role) actor Segawa Kikunojo II (1741-1773) sits on a verandah while reaching through the folds of a young shinzo (apprentice prostitute) under the displeased gaze of her mentor at the left; Mane’emon watches the encounter and breaks wind to add to the scent of the cherry blossoms.
