From the rare series "Mitate Go-Sho" (Five Elements Parodied). "Matsui-cho Yukei" (Evening Scene of Matsui-cho". A beauty is taking a walk with her dog. The word, "Mitate" (parodied or alluded) was punned for the kan-ji letters, "beauty". The large black doors would be shut in the evening for safety.
