Woodblock print, on a rectangular length of paper with a cream border around the print. Depicted are two people, possibly children, running whilst carrying a paper lantern on a long staff with white, folded paper positioned at the top of the staff. The other individual holds a cylindrical lantern with black Kanji script written upon it. Both wear green and white robes with black sashes around the waist and red and white kerchiefs tied around their heads. There is a length of Japanese Kanji script along the left side of the print with the title and maker's seal stamped in the lower left corner.
