A vertically oriented print in black ink depicts a circular medallion. Inside, the goddess Kounin, a woman with light skin tone, stands amidst swirling waves, facing our right. She holds a tray with a tall vessel and small items. To her right, a bird with long tail feathers flies toward her. An intricate border of dark, floral patterns encircles the scene. Below, cursive inscriptions appear in the white margin.
