A vertically oriented textile depicts two people with light skin tones and long red hair dancing against a light blue background. They wear multi-layered garments of red, green, and gold that enwrap them in layered folds. One figure leans forward extending a dark fan; another stands slightly behind, raising a gold fan decorated with a red sun. Geometric and floral patterns decorate the elaborate robes.
