The pages combine depictions of traditional figures in period costumes (kimonos with intricate patterns, traditional hairstyles) with abundant poetic or narrative inscriptions written in Japanese cursive calligraphy (kuzushiji). Figure on the left: This depicts a kabuki actor or a warrior with an expressive, grimacing face, dressed in a garment adorned with geometric and floral motifs, holding a frame or mirror displaying another scene.
